# Creative Destruction

Via The Register via LinuxToday, SGI has been delisted from the NYSE. Reading a related article, they still cranked out over $700 million in turnover last year, which is nothing to snort at, but the days when uberpowerful, almost mythical SGI boxes were worth the premium are over. The story isn't new, but it is sad, I guess.

On a related note, Sun 'only' lost $133 million this past quarter.
