MIPS can use either big or little endian modes, though. SGI used MIPS in big endian mode, but some of the stuff out of China using MIPS today is little endian.

MIPS can use either big or little endian modes, though. SGI used MIPS in big endian mode, but some of the stuff out of China using MIPS today is little endian. Some devices include a hardware switch that lets you choose. ARM also supported both, but you don't really see ARM used in big endian mode today.
