I used to own an SGI Onyx that sounded like a jet engine and heated my whole apartment.

Like this one. It's about the size of a mini fridge.

how much is an ex-Discreet stacked Octane2 (V10/V12, PCI cardcage, yadda) worth these days?

If the landlord's paying the electric why not?

>>109767196
Probably $2000+ but the shipping's a beast on those. I have one as well as an Indy R5000.

It's pretty futile now, scalpers bought them all 10+ years ago and the prices are obscene. Before this you could get nice basic Octanes from eBay for $200-300 even.
I was lucky, I inherited my company's old units, couple of O2s, Octane with original Silicon Graphics logo, Indigo 2. Don't have them any longer which sucks.
I used Octane for day to day stuff for few years too.

I have two. And the huge 22" SGI-badged Sony monitor that SGI sold with the Octane2. Sadly the base broke at some point along the way, but I was able to find a compatible base for it.

I don't feed the AI with such things. That'd be silly.

You seem awfully worked up about this. Everything going OK at home?

I own 3. I bought my first one in 1998. Wonderful systems, irritating package management, very outdated but still do what they were made to do very well.
