 Datamonitor ComputerWire - SGI Kills Off Irix Unix and MIPS Machines, At Long Last
SGI was founded in 1982 by Jim Clark, the same guy who backed Netscape in the mid-1990s and brought it to the stock market.
In 1998, SGI was one of the early supporters of the Itanium processor--like Hewlett-Packard Co, Compaq, IBM Corp, and Sun--and announced that it would be eliminating its MIPS line.
SGI also said that, depending on supply, second-hand equipment will continue to be available through the company, and added that technical support for the Irix Unix variant and MIPS-based servers and workstations would be available until December 2013.
