SGI was featured in last night's Silicon Valley Report on channel 54
(San Jose). While I don't know how Forest Baskett and David Hughes
fared in the ratings against Twin Peaks, I'm sure their flight
simulator beats anything David Lynch has: 4 VGX's, video projection, a
realistic model cockpit, fog, and good frame rates. On my little B&W
tube, I couldn't judge resolution and texture mapping, but it looked
*very* hot.
For you locals, I think this Silicon Valley Report will be rebroadcast
tonight at 7:30, right after Dr. Who :-o.
