drive sleds there.

> Irix Media, there was talk of a software repository somewhere here?

Not sure. I think those are freeware sgi softwares?

> What's the best version for this machine? The newest 6.5?

As for the Media, ebay also has tons of this baby in the cheap... I
bought 6.5.2 and 6.5.3 media's from ebay and should be arriving soon. I
wouldn't mind iso'ing it or so, if someone would tell me how to do it?
Preferably on a Sun machine and I could dump it on my ftp server for
leeeaaching...
