It turned out to be a radio ham's garage, rather than the garden 
variety. FPC for IRIX, anybody? :-)

I hope everybody appreciates that that was a poor attempt at a joke. 
MIPS (or rather, I think, mipsel) seems to be getting a bit of attention 
due to Tilera's efforts, SGI appears to be involved but I think that 
they're using the chips as coprocessors rather than reconstituting their 
classic MIPS-based supercomputers as "systems on a chip".
