@ProfIanMasters @ZienkiewiczCtr I recall it was around 2001/2002 that the Sun machines were replaced with SGI O2 workstations. I liked the SGIs, but only used the new ones briefly. By 2006 when I came back from being in Switzerland they too had been replaced with PCs.

Visited Cambridge computer museum today. Nice to see SGIs and Sun workstations again from the late 90s early 2000s

@SamRolland I was in many different offices over the years in the Talbot building. I think this particular picture was taken in an office opposite the photocopy room that used to be a research office in the late 90s.

[pdledger @pdledger]

Just found this old picture of me. 25 years of doing computational science and engineering research on UNIX/LINUX based operating systems and still going... Here's me 1998 using an SGI Indy workstation!

Continuing the theme of bridges from a few weeks ago, this weekend I cycled to the original "Iron-bridge" built by Abraham Darby III, built over the River Seven in 1779.

Congratulations to my RA Dr James Elgy who won the best post-doctoral researcher prize at the @UK_ACM conference last week.

[UKACM @UK_ACM]

Huge congratulations to the three winners of the UKACM conference prizes! #UKACM30

Grade 2* listed Bennerley Viaduct, built in 1877 by Great Northern Railway Company truly a magnificent piece of engineering. Wrought iron structure over 1/4 mile long, longest in the UK. Now cycle/footpath. https://t.co/2QWbC9KsYq
