Correct. But SNI is distributing SGI machines in Germany for them.
We bought our Indigo's, Indy's and PowerChallenge thru SNI.

I will contact Ted and Erik and try to work something out. For Germany
there is allready a mailing-list in place to coordinate FTP-Archives...
(also it somehow has never worked, at least i haven't got any mail for
over one year.)

Even better: it is in fact a RM600 with 2 CPU's and 512 MB RAM ...
But i don't think i will be able to get my hands on it ... SNIFF...
But i promise you: one of our DECstations due to be replaced with
AlphaPC's will be revived as Linux/MIPS if possible!
Cheers,
Dominik
