SGI Name Change

TurboDog sennt us a link to an article that suggests that SGI will change its name on wed. I'm waiting for word from my SGI contacts, but so far this is just a rumor. Update: 04/12 05:44 by CT : chrisd noted that their signs are covered up on shoreline... Update: 04/12 08:29 by CT : a few folks have wrote in to say that Silicon Graphic's new name will be.... SGI. Bummer.

  1. Name Change? This has happened before...many times by IntlHarvester · · Score: 3


    I think AT&T changed their name because the Wall Street JOurnal and others kept referring to them as "American Telephone", and they didn't like the confusing press.

    3M still makes Mining products, and is still Minnesota Mining and Manufaturing on paper.

    If anyone's been successfully able to link and read the article, since it's /., I'd much appreciated if you could respond and tell us all what the speculation is?

    I believe it's more a logo change than a name change, but again, I can't read the article...

    Thanks much!
