No it absolutely was Intel/windows. If you remember correctly, once of their last ditch efforts to save the company was to ditch irix and sell windows machines on Intel. They used to own the high performance market. I remember because my dad was a researcher that bought a 250k SGI workstation to run simulations on in the late 1980s and that was the first time I had seen a laser mouse and I played with the flight simulator. But as high performance computing because more ubiquitous and cheaper they couldn’t compete and had to lower their prices until they went bankrupt.
