of memory (8 times interleaved), throughput of system bus 1.2 GB/s,
32 SCSI channels, disk matrix 600 GB, most advanced graphics system
Reality Engine 2 - 1024 bits/pixel, resolution 1600x1200,
160MB frame buffer, all gfx operations done in hardware.
SGI workstations are used in Polish army for advanced simulations.
