SGI goes down. They were a wounded elephant for the last two or three years at least, maybe longer. But it's a very sad end, to my mind, a brilliant company.
I worked for them for a while in the late 80's (when they had just very successfully gone public) and they were tremendous innovators and cool folks, too. I cannot say that I really care about many former employers but this was one of the few that I did care about.
