For OpenGL graphics, you'll need either AccelX from Xi graphics , or Metro X with one of the supported cards.
However, the accelerated versions are RSN, which is not what you want, so you may be better off looking at an old Indy or Indogo2, either from the open market, or at SGI's remanufactured products page.
While some would argue that 14.99 is way to much to pay for a CD, it is still *reasonable*.
Sorry, but when the equivalent tape version of a cd costs siginificantly less, then it is obvious to me that the CD is NOT reasonably priced. You can't tell me that a static stamped CD is more expensive to produce than a tape with moving parts.

..about how bad it is to be dependant on a single proprietry vendor? Did the SGI execs come out of the Andy Grove business school?
Who made the decision, BTW. Does anyone know whether it was a marketing/manager type bod, or an engineering based decision (I wager the former.)
