So I recently managed to snag an Indigo off of eBay (the listing for which Fascia posted about in the hardware section). It arrived today and so I set about cleaning it up and seeing what kind of condition the system was in. The seller didn't mention any specs outside of the model number so I knew it was going to be a surprise. Regardless, it's an entry level system with an R3000 processor, a 16MB RAM kit installed, and the full-size PCB entry graphics. The one cool thing about it, though, is the Floptical drive. The battery is dead, so I'll be looking at soldering in a replacement holder for CR2032s a la jan-jaap. The plastics were a bit rough but I used Irinikus' method of Meguair's Ultimate Compound for polishing away the scratches and ended up with a pretty clean case that only shows wear up close. I'll need to pick up the PS/2 adapter so I can hook up my non-Indigo mouse and keyboard in addition to doing the battery mod before I can see what's on the disk but at least it boots far enough to tell me it can't set the clock. I'll post an update once I get things going!
