  • I also have a passing knowledge of 3D Studio and the 3DS network renderer for IRIX.
    
• I used to work on the IrisVision 3D graphics accelerator for PeeCees.
  • My latest and greatest PC information is available here as well.
  • Here's some other technical information pages, including network and hardware interfacing.
    
• Did you know that MIPS RISC CPUs are shipped in the highest volume of all (second only to the Intel CISC CPUs)?
  • I own a Philips Velo1 and it is a nifty little WindowsCE system.
    • Its amazing to think that here is a handheld, 36 MHz MIPS R4000, with 12MB RAM and graphics, almost a clone of the original Indigo and Indy systems, for under $400!
    • Paragraph makes an excellent handwriting recognition utility for the WindowsCE systems.

About This Web Site

These pages were produced using Silicon Graphics CosmoCreate software on the Silicon Graphics O2 workstation at my desk. The O2 system includes a MIPS R5000SC-200MHz CPU, 128MB RAM, 9.6 GB of hard disk storage, including 3.6GB in a 3-way striped XFS/XLV disk array. Everything in CosmoCreate is WYSIWYG, drag and drop and really easy to use, even down to creating frames (which I've chosen not to use on these pages). I use Netscape Communicator v4.x for a browser on a high resolution 24bit True-color display, I'd like to know if there are any problems with any other browsers. This web site is served from http://reality.sgi.com/ an employee home page and community service web server provided by Silicon Graphics.
