SGI Octane: What can a $30,000 computer from the 90's do ?

I thought I'd go big, with the SGI Octane from the swap meet, for my only scheduled stream next week. Will I be able to get my Octane to boot from a Raspberry Pi? We'll find out next Tuesday, August 8 starting at 8PM EDT. https://youtube.com/live/V2K5GanjCSs?feature=share #sgi #sgioctane #irix #byetooth

Can someone explain the appeal of transparent computer cases to me, or cases with windows, or interior RGB lighting?

To me the ideal PC shape is the NeXTcube. Or if you want a splash of color an SGI Octane or something.

Not criticizing your choices, but like… why do you want to see the dust gathering inside your case all the time lit up by garish colors?

what am I missing (other than a sense of fun and whimsy)?
