SGI will sell the VisualPC through direct sales, assembled by contract. The basic IO will not run through the bus, but via the interconnect. I don't know if the video adapter would be a direct line off of the motherboard or via a PCI card - I suspect the latter. SGI drivers will be included in the Windows NT CD that everybody gets from Microsoft. There will be no ISA slots, only some PCIs. You can get single- or dual-processor for it, I suspect on the same main board. Current direct3d and openGL code will run, and the newer Fahrenheit will be a synthesis of these, as well as the two higher-level interfaces. Thats about all I know. Greg
