i truly believe that SGI has more cool, interesting, useful,entertaining, well thought out, rigorious, tasteful, sound, elegant, marketable ideas and technologies than any other player. MSFT may well be the catalyst for turning this all into cash. if they get over their facination with exclusivity, and get this stuff out to the unwashed, i see 10,000 streams of revenue for a long time.SGI getting back to it's roots as an obscure fringe, idealistic, marginal, eclectic, geeknest would certainly be a topic for Wired journalists, but as a business stratigy, i think it would be a hard sell:) vincent |
