As Mark Twain once said: "The report of my death was an exaggeration"

SGI is not what it once was, but they do have some significant products
in this space.  They are great for scalability, and for the price, their
Altix systems are honkers!

The other interesting one is "Cray", although it is not exactly the same
"Cray" as when Seymour started it.  If you follow the time line:

you can see they claim the name by a thin thread. :-)

Still, they make really wicked computers.
