Wot about SGI Crimson's? (Or in my case, a Power
Series frame, w/
Crimson boards in it) Or are they too new (and LARGE :-) ) for the
list?
I think Brian may have meant Onyx2, which is basically an Origin2000 with a
shedload (or at least half a rack's worth) of graphics engine. Crimsons
and Power Series are certainly on-topic here.
(The optical mouse I have for it is in too bad a shape
to be really
usable anymore - the felts shot, and it sticks to the metal plate/mouse
pad too much for my tastes.)
Why can't you clean it, and replace the felt?

a optical mouse with plate I don't like.
Acutally, what I'd like to do is plug my 20$ Logitech Optical mouse (no
plate) into it, but somehow or another, I don't expect to see USB on a
Crimson anytime soon.
