This wide range can be attributed to SGI's accounting rules all expenses of designing workstation chips were allocated to MIPS group, while the revenues from the sales of those workstations went to SGI.
And if AMD wants to challenge Santa Clara, Calif.-based Intel seriously in the server and workstation market, getting its chips to work in groups of four or more is a must.
When a designer is ready to test part of a new chip layout, his workstation uses NetBatch to find all the other machines on the network that are idle, whether they are in Ireland or China or the U.S., and feed the job to them.

And nowhere was that more evident than in SGI's effort to bring out its first workstation based on Intel Pentium chips and Microsoft's Windows NT operating system.
After elution in the cleaning workstation (GeneChip Fluidics Station450, Affymetrix), chips were scanned with Gene Array Scanner3000 7G (Affymetrix) to trace detection signal.
It led Nutter to an Intergraph read-only memory chip forgotten inside the workstation rubble.
Hewlett-Packard hwp may be close to striking a similar deal with IBM to manufacture the next generation of its PA-RISC chip for servers and workstations.
The only code name that deviates from the automotive theme is Sledgehammer, AMD's 64-bit chip for servers and workstations, which is intended to compete against Intel's Itanium.
AMD is still working on its Sledgehammer 64-bit chip for servers and workstations, but even when that's ready to ship, building a business around it will take years.
