This is NEITHER legal NOR tax advice.

Why don't you set up a suitable NPO, donate the machine to it and use
it for educational purposes.

Why don't you incorporate, donate the machine to it (or ask SGI to
donate it directly) and start up a commercial WebServer?

In case you do so, you can buy me lunch next time I visit Chicago. Or
even better, donate 100 megs of Web estate :-)

Congratulations for the prize,
