I won an auction down at Indiana University for an SGI Origin 2000 System and 19 racks.
Trip was an adventure. Rented a 26ft Penske Truck which was a junkheap in itself. Off we went. My gf and her best friend went along and had a blast. 7 Hour drive down from Michigan to Bloomington Indiana. In a rainstorm at dark. Waffle House outside of Indianapolis made for a very nice night. Got loaded up 9am yesterday morning. And headed home. Here are pics of the SGIs. And my gf's find an IBM Selectric II. Shes a typewriter lover. https://imgur.com/a/XzDXg Plan now is to start rounding up parts to fix it. It seems mostly cosmetic. Goal is to have it fully operational by VCFMW. I also found some historical info on it too https://www.hpcwire.com/1997/05/16/indiana-u-installs-64-node-origin2000/ Eventually this belongs on display somewhere. I plan to get an inventory of everything this week. and Im looking for any extra parts that anyone has for this. Thanks
