My first job out of school was at AT&T, which way back then we used their 3B series workstations. Later I jumped ship to what is now BAE Systems, where they were in the process of switching CAD systems from Anvil on PCs to Pro/ENGINEER on Indigo 2s. I still run Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 2 on my SGI workstations at home, but at work we got rid of the last of our SGIs 9 or 10 years ago. We unloaded them to a recycler that was not a reseller, so unfortunately all those thousand or so Indy2s, Octanes and Octane2s were melted down.
