I am the proud owner of an SGI o2 machine, It has limited memory and
being a neophyte to irix and sgi, I was wondering if there was anyone in
the metro east St. Louis Mo. area that would be willing to help me
expand the machine and to teach me some basics to get me started.
Thanks in advance.

I'm in St.louis, and I am waiting for my O2 to be shipped to me, and
after I have had it for a while, I want to slap in a second drive, ad
upgrade the processor to the max, and slap in the full gig of memory,
but I've never used Irix before, and was wondering what software is
available, and games and such.

A lot of opensource software also compiles and runs fine on IRIX. If
your arent familiar with a compiler or want waste your time you can take
a look to SGIs Freeware[1], Nekoware[2] or TheWrittenWord[3].
