I, like Jan Schaumann, have an Octane available, but in Iowa.
However, I can't really afford to ship it, let alone to China.
But, if I can be of any help testing stuff I'd try to do what I can.
And yes, (at least this one anyway) SGI boxes can do serial console.
Also, I may be able to get a console server, netboot file
selection thing and power cycler setup if it would be useful.
