I hate to say this But I gave away my Indigo box.... my pc smoked it. I was
using ProE and Auto Cad and it was to slow, the Indigo even got to slow for
my web site. It was very good for a tax donation. These Iris computers could
be OK if you have the software. But befor you buy check the processor speed,
number also check the ram. The keyboard you can get surplus but monitors are
expensive I paid $3000 for a 3rd party 17" about 4 years ago. These
computers are costly to run. If you get the serial number form the computer
SGI can tell you the status of the licenes and and upgrade costs. I do like
SGI computers and there pricing structure has changed but you can probabily
do everything an Irus can do with a 300mhz pc running Lynx or heaven forbid
windows NT.

PS. when I said my PC smoked my Indigo Box the PC was a P5 90 w/64 mb ram
and a 32mb video card and this was a very early Indigo.
