Re: Battery in Octane PVO card?
I have the EMXI so it should hook right up. I see the three slots on the back of the card that the PVO has connectors for. But, honestly at the moment I am wondering if I should just figure out how to remote desktop from windows to see the Irix desktop there and then just use camtasia to record the ...

Re: Tezro for sale in Georgia (not mine)
I saw that one. Though the case looked really beat up. As much as I'd like to have a Tezro someday I'd rather pay a good price for a well kept one that spend $800 and get a mystery problem rubix cube to solve. I get terrified of spending too many hours chasing down things just to get something to wo...

Re: your latest purchase
I was on a crazy beers of the world binge between 2005-2008. Many of my faves fell into the trappist category. It is quite obvious that saying I like westvleteren 12 is like people saying they like the Beatles. It is a quad. When I first tried it in 2007 it was very very difficult to acquire. Now th...

Re: O2 R5200 300MHz 384Mb
Any pics of the machine?
Also, I have a 180mhz o2 I have to pick up someday from south of San Fran. I plan on getting a 300mhz just like you for it.
My plan for all the o2s is to get Dodoids d1 which will hopefully make the net browsing less painful.

Re: $4k LOT of SGI. Florida, USA, Tezro, Onyx, Octanes. [Ebay] Not Mine
Speaking of BoXX I have been tempted to buy one of their little novelty mini towers called Apexx1. Ridiculously expensive if I were to try and make it myself from NewEgg I could get a similar setup for 1/3 off the price almost. But they have that super cute little case setup. Like a little modern o2...

Re: Which SGI box is your favorite and why?
Now that I have an Octane it has become my favorite. It is just so snappy. Even the default 195mhz single proc felt more snappy than the 400mhz o2. Sure, not at render time. But for general modeling and interactivity the Octane has the optimal workstation feel for working with 3d graphics at the tim...

Re: WTB skins/plastics
That'd be pretty rad. I belong to this keyboard/keycaps forum keythority and I had them do custom keycaps. They do group buys to get the double injection plastic mouldings. Hundreds of people sign up. But it was a long process. I ordered Dec of 2015 and just last month the Keycaps arrived. The injec...

Re: $4k LOT of SGI. Florida, USA, Tezro, Onyx, Octanes. [Ebay] Not Mine
What is that purple PC looking thing? Is that an intel rebranded SGI? Don't remember that one.
I'd want the Tezro and maybe one of the Octane2s BUT, this would have to be a group buy. No way I am cutting 4k right now.
I don't know enough about the Rackmount systems to even know how to evaluate.

Re: ScummVM version 2.0 avail for IRIX (12/2017)
I've played most of the Sierra games. Space Quest was my fave series. I still break them out once a year and play through at least one of them. Space Quest 3 is wonderful. Still the type text quest game right before point and click. Kings Quest was something I had only played part 5 and 6. until thi...
