What's the difference anyway. Origin 2000 with graphics option was sold as Onyx 2; the basic architecture of both is identical. SGI just never built the planned graphics option for the Origin 200 which is why the machine still comes with the keyboard and mouse connectors on the backside which I'm not even sure of if any software is supportign them at all.
