If there is one company out there that embodies "former glory", it just has to be Silicon Graphics Incorporated. Once one of the most well-respected high-performance computer and software makers of the world, it is now a mere shadow of its former self. The most recent set of financial results from the company do not bode well for the already troubled company.

This shouldn't be surprising. The supercomputing market is heavily dependent on gov't spending. With gov't across the world trying to cut spending; the traditional supercomputing market is probably going to take a nasty hit. For a company like IBM that isn't a huge deal,they have their regular enterprise and consumer operations to absorb the hit. SGI has no such luxury
