No need to hurry. I keep my site online as long as I have a decent internet connection.

Hi Pixelbart,

thanks very much for making all the software available and providing a nice simple why to browse through it and read the release information.

Really helpful SGI/IRIX resource.

Cheers from oz,

If you think that's bad then wait until you try a big "gendist" on an R3000. Or R4400 for that matter. Don't know why the devs didn't push REALLY hard for multiple threads there - it only uses one CPU if I recall. Been a while since I ran it though.

Great resource though, thanks, especially for those programs that require a specfic point release.

In trying to find the February 2003 Development Libraries, I stumbled upon the August 2003 freeware disc set. If you're interested in adding it to your site, you can find them here. All four discs extracted without error using efsextract so I assume they're good.

I too thank you Pixelbart!

This is an excellent resource for SGI enthusiasts and the preservation hobby in general.
