I guess it's all relative. Granted, SGI systems are workstations, and if
you're
looking to purchase stuff from a reseller, it's going to be rather expensive
any way you go, because they're generally geared to the sort of clientele
that will purchase and pay larger amounts of money for workstations and
workstation parts. It's hard to keep this in mind sometimes when we are
so used to getting equipment for free or extremely cheaply, but sometimes
there's that part that we just really don't have much choice for.
I didn't mean to point anyone in the "wrong" direction. I was just
suggesting
them as they certainly have the parts, and I personally have had nothing but
positive experiences with them in the past.
