I had an interview with this company last year and they are phasing out most of the SGI stations in favor of another brand. and it isn't anything associated with AMD or Intel.

they ordered a lot of G4's because they are cheaper to use than the SGI stations, more powerful and they hack them severely and install Unix on them
