Another question should be not whether or not SGI is facing the corporate death chop but whether or not they deserve to die. I doubt many people would dispute that SGI makes good machines, but I have to deal with the amount of money it costs to support such hardware. SGI gouges its customers at every possible opportunity so despite the fact that I love my Personal Iris, my Indigo, and the Challenge XL that I maintain, I often question whether SGI deserves any customer loyalty.
