Let me phrase it like Kinky Friedman ... the [non-]quality of SGI's plastic
parts has always failed to amaze me.  Most of my SGIs (I still have a
couple) have avoided major breakage, but, even given the great care with
which I've treated them, the cases all have various minor bits broken off.

Since I got all the stuff cheap-or-free, it's hard for me to complain.  If
I'd laid out $35k (or whatever) for a loaded Octane, however, only to have
the front door break off, I wouldn't be so sanguine.

Y'gotta wonder why they didn't do better.
