This is great. Perhaps it's finally time for me to upgrade from my SGI Fuel to a Linux system running MaXX: https://triosdevelopers.com/~jason.eckert/trios/SGI_Fuel.jpg

You still use your fuel? Nice.

What upgrades do you have? I only have a 500Mhz cpu, but i have 4 Gb and I put in an ssd. I also put in a modern power supply which makes it a little less loud.

Man that thing is loud

In addition to bumping it to 4GB, the only upgrade I did was for the HDD. I'm not sure if mine has a quieter PSU, but it doesn't seem (to me at least) to be louder than any other PC when running.

900MHz, 4GB and a DCD V12. Need to fix the PSU, but I love the Big Red look. And hey, it's quieter than a Tezro.

		I forgot I also have a V12, but no DCD. I also have a sound card, but its mot connected (my old PSU gave me problems as it died)

Or you could just run this on it, which would probably compile just fine on Linux-MIPS: https://github.com/rhaleblian/pirix
