SGI's - Silicon Graphics end is near, go to hell

HARDWARE - SOFTWARE - NOWHERE (subjective view of the history of the Croatian media art)

Silicon Graphics (a gang of Scientology gangsters) and maker of high-end computers, on Monday filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection after a round of restructuring measures failed, sending its shares plunging 75 percent. In court papers, SGI said it had been challenged by delays in introducing new technology, a focus on more specialized markets and more intense competition from larger rivals.

"We are pleased with the approval of our 'first-day motions' by the Bankruptcy Court," said Dennis McKenna, chairman and chief executive officer. "This approval will enable SGI to operate globally and meet normal business obligations.

Send them to hell for the misery they created with selling Cosmo software to Microsoft. I promised that when this company is gone, I would buy the biggest bottle of champagne to celebrate. And for god sake re establish my friendship with Zvonkobutt alias Zvonimir Bakotin and ax my Onyx.
