SGI also owns a little company called Alias\|wavefront (A\|W). When Micro$oft sold it's interest in Softimage to Avid, the press indicated that Softimage had traded hands for around $ 285 Million. Alias\|wavefront has been doing quite well with it's products (notably Maya). Since A\|W is completely owned by SGI, it's financials are anyones guess. My guess would be A\|W is at least worth what Avid paid for Softimage (ie roughly $ 300 Million). I wouldn't want to see A\|W sold, but I also don't believe it is so insignificant that it should be ignored.
