-I ran across this CD-ROM while cleaning out some old boxes of SGI software. It
-contains promotional songs that accompanied the [SGI
-Octane](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SGI_Octane) launch circa 1997(ish).
-
-Since the only other links I see online appear to be dead, I will preserve the
-songs here as a lesson to future generations. Take heed: when your workstations cost five
-figures, weird marketing isn't a substitute for performance.
-
-With that out of the way, enjoy some UNIX workstation marketing music from a
-more light-hearted time in computing history.  And don't worry, the album cover
-clearly notes, "WARNING: Explicit lyrics do not play backwards."

-For anyone doubting the pure artistry on display in this musical marketing
-masterpiece, peruse some sample lyrics.
-
-**Knee Deep In 3D:**
-
-    I can texture and convolute.
-    I'm gonna rotate and spin.
-    These graphics so damn realistic,
-    Oh I think it's a sin.
-    
-    Now I'm seeing virtual reality,
-    Is it liquor or is it truth?
-    Am I seeing advanced 3D graphics,
-    Or just too much vermouth?
-
-**I Have A Dream:**
-
-    I have a dream and it's two CPUs.
-    What this will mean, is no more desktop blues.
-    Modeling and rendering, designing, analyzing, just pick any two.
-    I have one dream and it's two CPUs.
-    
-    I have a dream and it's called a crossbar switch.
-    What this will mean is no big data glitch.
-    Peer-to-peer, have no fear, get data in and out of here,
-        just with the flip of a switch.
-    I have a dream and it's called a crossbar switch.
-
-**OCTANE Swing:**
-
-    Octane, we're gonna rocktane.
-    But this thing called Octane, it swings with performance.
-    Octane, competition is inshocktane.
-    But this thing called Octane, it swings with performance.
-    
-    You don't need a hero,
-    You don't need any myth.
-    What you need is some action,
-    So get a load of this.
-    
-    You don't wanna be mediocore,
-    Not just run of the mill,
-    Some computer hacking joker,
-    Baby grab that thrill.
