Hey Guys,

This has nothing to do with cash but more to do with focus of both comapnies

"The sale of Alias will allow both companies to focus on their core marketplaces, while providing additional liquidity to SGI" said Bob Bishop, Chairman and CEO, Silicon Graphics. "Alias has been very successful in the 3D entertainment and industrial design sectors, primarily in recent years targeted at the PC market. This sale will allow SGI to concentrate our investments on growth opportunities in our core business".
