SGI has yet to release a machine with an Intel processor, as far as I am aware. The launch is supposed to happen January 11th, which is four days away. And I doubt the x86-based machines they are releasing then will replace stuff like the Onyx2 or Origin2000. They are planning to migrate to Intel processors, but they are nowhere close to actually completing that migration yet. And the Crays will probably not go to an Intel architecture until Merced at the earliest.
