Whoah. Missed that. That makes a lot of sense.

So what I've also learned is that I never needed to understand WTF "Avago" was. It's like something stuck in the middle of the evaluation stack of an expression parser.

Hah, kind of like when Rackables became SGI.

...or when one 'Tera Computer Company' bought what was left of Cray from SGI, renamed itself Cray Inc., and released reworked versions of existing products under the Cray name.

This is just stupid. Rackable was already way better known brand in datacenters/cloud than SGI. Who nowadays even remembers SGI?

Fine, fine...when NeXT was paid to take over Apple, if that helps you feel better. :)

HPC customers, so I assume that's Rackable's target market.

Wait, what?

Rackables bought SGI (Silicon Graphics) and then renamed themselves "SGI".

It was a sad day.
