Man, I've not fired up my I2 R10000 and Indy R5000

My I2's just sort of sitting there are the moment because I could really
use something* to give it a purpose (it's a Max Impact system with 2 x 4GB
disks and 384MB of memory, so it was a pretty good spec for the day).
Originated with Cray, but (unsurprisingly) they did everything via remote
NFS mounts, so there's not really anything interesting on the disks.
* demos, applications, whatever... something that makes good use of the
graphic abilities, anyway. When I last looked it seemed that there wasn't
much out there which wasn't still considered commercial software, and so
unobtainable without the original media.
