| | Silicon Graphics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Many SGI graphics engineers have left to work at other computer graphics companies like ATI and Nvidia, contributing to the PC 3D graphics revolution. | | | However, the graphical computing workstation industry has remained a focus and core business of SGI throughout its history. | | | The first IRIS 1000-series machines (IRIS standing for "Integrated Raster Imaging System") were designed to be connected to a DEC VAX computer as a graphics terminal, handling only the actual display. |

| | Galaxy: Silicon Graphics Systems |
| | SGI is the company known for helping to pioneer the computer graphics revolution of the early '90s, most famously in movies like "Terminator 2: Judgement Day" and "Jurassic Park." Their computers were, and still are, the core of Industrial Light and Magic's graphics conceptualization and generation abilities. | | | There are many reasons for which to do so: * Silicon Graphics, during the 1990s, built some of the best-designed computers, inside and out, ever. | | | XL These graphics, only ever available in 24-bit for Indigo2, were optimized for 2D. |

| | Silicon Graphics Testimony |
| | Although Silicon Graphics designs and manufactures personal computers, workstations, servers and supercomputers based on our own designs for RISC processing technology, a large part of our overall development effort is now focussed on software, including, display, communication, development tools, operating systems, applications and user interface technologies. | | | Silicon Graphics has participated in both bringing people to the Patent Office to do presentations on graphics technologies for the examiners. | | | Naturally, Silicon Graphics files a large number of patent applications related to both our hardware_ and software_based inventions, and has a vested interest in maintaining such protections. |

| | Silicon Graphics also maintained an open software interface for its entertain- ment graphics workstations, which meant that independent software developers could access specification information about Silicon Graphics workstations to ensure that their products would run on them. | | | The settlement would require Silicon Graphics to take steps to ensure that other companies that develop and sell such software and the workstations to run it can compete with Silicon Graphics. | | | Although other companies manufac- ture workstations with graphics capabilities, entertainment graphics software has been developed almost exclusively for use on Silicon Graphics workstations, the FTC said. |

| | Silicon Graphics IRIS InSight®: An SGML Success Story |
| | Silicon Graphics was about to launch the Indigo workstation, a low-end (for Silicon Graphics) computer that has since substantially enlarged its customer base. | | | However, since many companies that develop applications for Silicon Graphics computers also develop for other Unix computers and the Macintosh, they needed an online documentation approach that would not be limited to Silicon Graphics' line. | | | Because Silicon Graphics authors work with FrameMaker rather than with SGML authoring tools like those from ArborText or SoftQuad that directly create SGML files, they need to be "structure-aware" but do not need specialized knowledge of SGML syntax or technology. |
