The above comment is the most wickedly humorous one I've run into in several years at least. I'm not sure if the humor was intended. SGI does not see a trend until just about the time the trend becomes so thick as a brick and hit them on the head. Had they seen the trend, they would have owned the graphic market up and down the food chain.

I hope that their spinoff of MIPS will be successful and that someone like Compaq will absorb them soon. (My humble attempt at humor :)
