Bringing an Indigo back to life - worth it?
Hi all

In another thread I've got an Octane that's nearly alive and well; I've also been given an Indigo in the same haul. 

From what I can make out it was a R3000 upgraded to R4000 at some point, has at least 64Mb RAM, has the nicer graphics option (XS-24, full VRAM, Z-buffer board). Dead battery (easily replaced I guess - boots to usual tod clock unhappiness).

No hard drives or sleds, though. Finding the latter is seemingly a PITA. 

Getting it running will involve finding peripherals, AUI/DB connector, etc. 

Cosmetically she's in good condition. I barely remember these machines - when (much) younger I remember Indy, O2 and Octane.

What's worth doing here - parting it out? Sticking a SCSI2SD in it and making it bootable? Thoughts welcome.
