So, i managed to get up this morning and found my old credentials for this forum. Welcome all, it's been 4 years since i last got here.

I have some old stuff i want to clear before getting back to code sgi stuff and help folks, so i'll be doing an inventory of all the SGI machine piling up in my office.

Good to see old and new folks still around. :)
More to come

Welcome back. Have your inventory grown or shrunk during your "sleep"?

Thank you for your kind words, i appreciate it.

The inventory has stayed constant, pretty much since 2009 or so. I only threw away useless stuff like the Challenge L-Vault since its only use is a a boat anchor.

And some systems just crumbled and died: The O200@270MHz craylinked system just dropped from the grid one sad day and didn't came back. Analysis: master unit dead as a dodo. The Slave unit was functional so i swapped a DIP switch and the NIC (number in can) and that system stayed for some time as a build machine for firefox. But in the end the new University network reconfiguration got the better of them, my airconditioning unit also broke, so i couldn't keep the machines up 24/7

Firefox 3.5 / Seamonkey 2.0. I should fire up the machine to take a look at the exact version and pump stuff over to my home rig.
