     @mattl I feel the same way about the SiliconGraphics store on the Santa Monica Promenade. And I vaguely remember a DELL store in San Diego which had lighting like a very classy jazz lounge.

     @artlung I meant 8100, sorry. But they would have needed another sponsor for the film and SGI stuff was never cheap even compared to 1990s Apple prices.
