Nice list - keep up the good work
I'd say it's time to update my list a bit. Here's my collection:
Big iron:
* 4D/210 GTX (pinstripe of death
)
* 4D/420 VGX
* 4D/380 VGX, FDDI, IPI, VideoLab (currently being resurrected)
* Crimson Elan
* SGI 2100, 8x R10000, 8GB RAM
* Onyx2, 1x R10k, IR
Workstations:
* Personal Iris 4D/35 TG
* Indigo R3k Entry
* Indigo R4k XS24-Z
* Indigo R4400 Elan
* Indigo2 R4400 Extreme
* Indigo2 R8000 Extreme, FDDI
* Indigo2 R10000 MaxImpact+TRAM, G160
* Indy R4400 XZ
* Indy R5000 NG1-24bit, FDDI
* 2x Indy R4400 NG1-24bit, to toy with Linux and NetBSD
* O2 R10000, AV, DM10 (red adaptec)
* Octane R12000 SE
There is one old PC acting as a server, and a newer one acting as, ahem, a PC.
There are several more or less complete Indy/Indigo/Indigo2's around still that I have to get rid off of strip for parts. Several boxes full of 4D series boards. I'll probably get rid of the 4D/210 because it takes up too much space and I have better toys now.
Plans for the future:
* Get the Predator back in shape.
* Upgrade as much old (pre 100MBit) hardware to FDDI as possible
* Get an RE boardset for the Crimson
* Upgrade the 4D/420 to a 4D/440
* Get 400MHz cpus for the Origin and move the old ones to the Onyx2
* Continue installing bigger and more quiet harddisks
* Sort out the huge pile of spares/books/cables/cds/tapes etc. I have.
* Build a website for all of this.
* Either convert the garage into an office, or (better) build an extension to the house so I have enough space
Looks like I won't be bored for a while

Now this is a deep dark secret, so everybody keep it quiet
It turns out that when reset, the WD33C93 defaults to a SCSI ID of 0, and it was simpler to leave it that way... -- Dave Olson, in comp.sys.sgi
Currently in commercial service:
(2x)
In the museum : almost every MIPS/IRIX system.
Wanted : GM1 board for Professional Series GT graphics (030-0076-003, 030-0076-004)

the series III was cool, it ran OS9. my contemporary favorite. oh i forgot to mention my Lynn Drum :)
I've only picked up one piece of Sgi hardware in the past year. That one was a free Indy R5K. I'm ashamed to say it's still on the shelf. I haven't even had time to check it out yet.
I have bought several pieces of Mac hardware: three Powerbooks, an iBook, a Sawtooth G4 and several G3's - some of them freebies.

New addition is Korg 01R/W, which I dislike for now, but still it brings good memories (do you know what was "Indians- Sacred Spirit" done on? Well, now you do
)

All I have at the moment:
AthlonXP 3200+ on Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe motherboards
420GB drive space in it
2GB RAM
19" Philips monitor
Logitech dinovo desktop set
run-of-the-mill MX440 video card
I have another CPU and motherboard combo like this doing work at a client's office, but it's soon to be replaced permanently with a Intel 2x 2.8GHz Xeon system I set up.
Lying in the "PC room" and garage is some old junk PCs, just PII and PIII machines and my old K6-2 300MHz PC, some old 15" monitors, modems, Ditto drives, etc, etc. Every time someone makes me upgrade their office equipment, they dump me with their old junk.
I have to clean this crap out sometime.
How often to you guys upgrade? I buy so that I only have to replace the majors every 4-5 years. I can't understand people spending $3000 on the latest PC, and then doing it again in a few months' time. It's good for business, but not the personal pocket.
