I saw the article and thought "Oh cool a new power workstation" but after looking at the specs, 700mhz cpu's and such, is it? Wouldnt the new Apple G5's with dual 2 ghz cpus crush it?
Other than driving multiple gfx displays, what is the main use for this workstation? I havnt used a SGI workstation, so share the info...
