Silicon Graphics Inc. on Friday forecast a "significant" loss and lower sales for this quarter as the computer maker struggles with declines in its workstation and supercomputer businesses.
The company, which is known for its high-powered computers--they were used to create the special effects in movies such as "Jurassic Park" and "Forrest Gump"--told analysts it will post a loss of between 30 and 45 cents a share for the quarter ending Tuesday. It had been expected to break even, according to a survey of analysts by IBES International Inc.
