The 90s SGI machines were great, for graphics, but it is mystifying how many people used them as standard workstations given things like Suns had better CPUs. Toy Story was designed on SGIs and rendered on Suns for a reason after all.
The great oddity of SGIs was the multimedia peripherals worked properly, and this is the bit of the experience the NT and Linux replacements never quite managed.
