This page only lists sites which are currently available online. For defunct websites re-released by the IRIX Network, please see our archive.
sgistuff
A site featuring information, history, high-resolution photos, tips and tricks and more for most SGI systems. Created by Gerhard Lenerz and one of the most comprehensive sources of information, outclassing the IRIX Network wiki.
Higher Intellect Resources
A wiki for vintage computing including SGI systems and maintained by Paul Lezica and the Higher Intellect community.
UNIX Files
An abandonware archive dedicated to preservation of proprietary software for IRIX and other operating systems. All software on the site is unsupported and commercially unavailable for purchase and licensing.
SGI Depot
The website of Ian Mapleson, an SGI specialist located in the United Kingdom. Features technical information about SGI systems, advice on system administration, freely-available official SGI reference documents, benchmark results and performance comparisons, SGI news, links to useful SGI sites, information on non-SGI computers, and a store selling hundreds of different SGI systems, parts, accessories, upgrades, and more. If you need to buy something that has anything to do with SGI, SGIDepot probably sells it.
Mashek Systems
Mashek Systems is a Silicon Graphics reseller located in Tennessee, USA. Like SGIDepot, the site offers systems, parts, and accessories, as well as IRIX install media along with their systems for an addititional cost. To buyers in North America looking to purchase large or heavy items, shipping from Mashek may be cheaper than other resellers (particularly when domestic).
Mood Indigo
A German SGI forum, featuring systems for sale and discussion of SGI hardware and software. Not particularly active in the past few years, but may contain useful information for German-speaking SGI hobbyists.
SiliconBunny
An early SGI hobbyist website. Centered around its blog (unfortunately unmaintained, last updated in 2010), the site also features useful downloads, detailed information about select SGI models, pictures, and more.
4crawler
The personal site of ex-SGI employee and off-roading enthusiast Roger Brown. Features information and software downloads for the IRISVision card (which Brown worked on during his time at SGI), IRIX tips and tricks, information about SGI's technology in the Nintendo 64, and miscellaneous SGI information, in addition to other non-SGI-related pages about Brown's other hobbies.
