[rescue] SGI files for bankruptcy

[Patrick Giagnocavo]

from Reuters:

Computer maker Silicon Graphics filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy
protection after a round of restructuring measures failed, according to
court papers filed on Monday.

The company said it had been challenged by delays in introducing new
technology, a focus on more specialized markets and more intense
competition from larger rivals. Silicon Graphics filed for bankruptcy
protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New
York.

who thought Microsoft could write a server-level OS that would scale
past 4 processors."
