Sure. Dave wants me to buy his as well, so we could Craylink all  
three of them into one giant monster SGI ;-)

Wow, 48 processors and how many Gigs of ram? Mine has 16GB. I think  
Dave's is a little light at 4GB, But I have some I I could throw in  
his to get it up to 8GB at least.

BTW, I just got the LCD panel installed on mine, I was kind of  
worried, because when it arrived, their was a broken glass sound  
coming from it, but it turned out to just be a magnet that had come  
apart. It looks so much sexier with the SGI logo displayed on the front.
