Where to find SGI technical reports?
Hi there,

I'm working on a graphics benchmark for old professional workstations (including SGI ones) and I would like to better understand the architecture and graphics cores inside these systems.

I was able to find technical reports for: Indigo2 (non-Impact), O2 and Octane (MGRAS).

Does anybody know where to find the reports for Indigo2 Impact and Octane2 (VPro) and Indy?

Thanks.

TechPubs != Technical Reports.

Anyway, here are some: http://www.sgidepot.co.uk/sgi.html#TECHREPS

I have old material (brochures, reports), mostly about the PowerSeries. One day I'll make PDFs out of them. If you can't wait there's a ton of that sort of material here: https://www.1000bit.it/ad/bro/brochures.asp?id=119
