I'm not sure why this would present any problems for NCAR Graphics.
NCAR Graphics is supported on platforms we have in house and can easily be
supported on other architectures provided we can be granted access when
we don't physically have the architecture.

Ports to other architectures are based on user requests, so I don't see
how the SGI/CRAY split will have much affect on NCAR Graphics.
