I port freely-available (including "Open Source") software to IRIX and
make it compile nicely with MIPSpro, and, unlike freeware.sgi.com, I
don't make every damned package depend on GNOME. I also use IRIX as my
primary web, mail, file, print and database serving platform and advocate
it to anyone looking for a rock-solid server (can you beat the bang/buck
and stability of a used Octane these days?).
