And, the ironic super-computing and visualization workstation brand finally disappears into history.

Either way it seems like good news to me, at least SGI will live on in some form now.

I hope they start making graphics workstations again.

HP got the PC and workstation and printers business.
HPE is all servers, services, and software.

Rackable already killed SGI when they bought it years ago, there is no semblance of it in this company outside of the logo Rackable applied to their own products, which are not descended from SGI designs in any meaningful way other than in branding.
I hope this doesn't mean IRIX will go behind a paywall though, although it's doubtful they'll do anything with it like they did with VMS.
