    -Which is a point well made. Still the Octane is a wonderfull machine
     considering it's age and for that time quite revolutionary for
     a desktop workstation. I've one in my working place where it
     can produce all the noise it wants, but you can't use it
     on stage, with a (albeit closely miked, thus amplified)
     violin playing delicate noises (which are analysed by a SGI
     machine and subsequently send out control signals with OSC to
     a Apple G4 for signal procesing).
     So probably it end up being an upgraded o2, conected to
     other machines over a local network. One option still
     under consideration is putting one or more Octanes backstage
     and connections the desired I/O throught ADAT and ethernet
     to the appropriate places. But that is the next item on the menu...
