A few of you have posted about not being able to set up
demos of the VPC. We already had SGI bring buy a VPC for
general demos. A local re-seller is bringing one out
on Friday so we can sit down and play with it in a more
private session. I'll post my experiences after I see it in action.
And I'll ask about any PCI bus problems.

I decided the Xeons were just not powerful enough and
linux would not be along soon enough so today I ordered
an Octane with the new 300 Mhz R12000 with 2 MB of CPU cache.
I put 1.5 Gigabytes of memory in it and twin 9 GB 10,000
RPM SCSI drives. Passed up a flat panel for the Sony 24 inch
monitor. Sorry to see it has lower ratings than the HP does
though. But we have too much invested in SGI software to switch
platforms.
