I never saw an SGI in "personal computer" mode until the sun was setting - they were always being banged on by departments, or rendering 24-7. I'm jealous of anyone who had one to themselves when they were still a power.
The Amigas were something else, though, but every time I ran into one it was getting its lunch eaten by the nearby Mac. Only for a year or two, in TV production environments, did I see an advantage with Amiga.
Now, with both among my collection, the SGI is the one I turn on most frequently (when the power grid can handle it).
