"high-margin, fast boxes while rapidly reducing costs", then everyone -- Compaq, Dell, whatever -- are all niche players.

Wrong. Compaq is now selling lots of low margin computers, as Randy pointed out.

And while you might find the truth obnoxious, you cannot call a company with 3% of the market and strong graphics presence anything but a niche player.

I pressume you find the comment "niche player" derogatory. I don't. SGI was a niche player and very profitable one.
