A BIG SGI IRIS, I think it was a 3000, but it looked

pictures I've seen of those.
do you mean 3000 as in "Origin 3000" (big black things) or 3000 as in
"IRIS
3000" (20y old beige hardware). If it's the latter... someone should
grab it as these are quite rare as it seems.
Speaking of colors and sizes:

shows a deskside IRIS 3000 underneath a 19" monitor and beside other
SGI desksides.
The terminal style IRIS must have been more or less same height and
same depth, but it isn't as wide as I think it has less space for
boards. I have never seen the rack, but I have also seen it mentioned
in the Old IRIS FAQ.
