God I miss my SGI machine
// February 6th, 2004 // No Comments » // awesomeness
When I worked for Opulent I had a SGI Octane. Those that know me well, know that I love my SGI machines and the whole SGI culture. Anywayz, I just gotten Irix 6.5.15m loaded on the machine and was in the process of getting all the apps that I like to use installed and one app that I highly recommend is Sylpheed. It is a great email client app that will allow you to control more than one email account from one window, crappy MS Outlook cant do that.
Here is a look at the hardware inventry:
