SGI Season, obviously...

Well, it must be the season driving all those nice colourful critters out of their holes... I also was called to an SGI rescue this weekend and came home with an Octane2 (with PCI cardcage housing a 100baseFX adaptor), an R4600 Indy and a teal Indigo2. I wasn't sure whether to accept that last one as I already have two of those - but only until I realized it was that system that contained the host card for the Galileo desktop video connection box that was part of the haul! Furthermore I picked up three different monitors (two in the old granite finish/"3D Cube" logo style, one of these is the variant with the remote control, and one in anthrazite black with the new "sgi" wordmark logo), a few mice and keyboards (including a pre-PS/2 one that will only need an adaptor cable to work with my Personal Iris), and an O2cam for one of my "bare metal" O2s (- their skins were smashed beyond any remedy when they hit the dumpster). So long, Arno
