What to buy with $150,000

[Lipman]

This newsgroup is the closest thing to an RS/6000 group that
I could find.

We have $150,000 to spend on a computer graphics visualizaiton
system for CFD and finite element analysis animations and
computations.  What would you buy? IBM RS/6000-730, SGI, APOLLO,
SUN, STARDENT, etc.

Currently, we have an Apollo network with about 25 nodes.  We
are buying only one big machine, not a lot of little machines.
If possible, compare CPU and graphics speeds.  Networking, support,
available software are important.

Thanks in advance, e-mail please
