The SGI Indy arrived today. Neat machine. An AXP and SS10 may be on their way. The bad news: I hope y'all don't mind if I restrict the ports to keyboard input. I'm kinda wondering about the rudeness of yanking the mouse into the window for mouse control. Would rather not muck with it. Real men use keyboards only anyway.. (I'm an incurable vi loser). The sound may also be sorta medium OK. My Linux sound code doesn't sound super hot because Linux as w/ other UNIXes isn't too pleased with real-time sound scheduling, mixing, modelling, etc. The effect is a few sound effects like item-up which sound as though there's a Katherine Hepburn filter on the output. Kind of crunched for time at work, now. The jag ports beckon. =-ddt->
