RE: What's a good SGI machine to start with?
Indigo2 can be noisy, but it is possible to fan-mod it to be a lot quieter. Of course, I would recommend this less if you have IMPACT with TRAM modules, or if you're in a warm location. Living in the north of Scotland and only having a SolidIMPACT in my Indigo2 means that with a mod, it's now reasonably quiet and easily quiet enough for it to be bearable.
