So what I'm missing is the Fahrenheit project I got into. MS and SGI were cooperating on "Fahrenheit", a highlevel scene graph sdk/api. Eventually it never got released and both parties bailed.

Fahrenheit was a horrible microsoft api, and more like a scenegraph than a low level api. There were photos (probably still somewhere on reality.sgiweb.org) of it all being burned. Burn API burn!
