The SGI 1600SW screen with the proper MultiLink adapter connected to a modern computer (the ODroid in the 3D pronted case which resembes the SGI Indigo computer).

The desk was too small for an original SGI keyboard, though.

Making space for new desks, we had to put the workstations somewhere...

The Indy, code-named "Guinness", is a low-end workstation introduced on 12 July 1993. Developed and manufactured by Silicon Graphics Incorporated (SGI), it was the result of their attempt to obtain a share of the low-end computer-aided design (CAD) market, which was dominated at the time by other workstation vendors; and the desktop publishing and multimedia markets, which were mostly dominated at the time by Apple Computer. It was discontinued on 30 June 1997 and support ended on 31 December 2011.

Retrocomputing (a portmanteau of retro and computing) is the use of early computer hardware and software today. Retrocomputing is usually classed as a hobby and recreation rather than a practical application of technology; enthusiasts often collect rare and valuable hardware and software for sentimental reasons. However some do make use of it.[1] Retrocomputing often gets its start when a computer user realizes that expensive fantasy systems like IBM Mainframes, DEC Superminis, SGI workstations and Cray Supercomputers have become affordable on the used computer market, usually in a relatively short time after the computers' era of use.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retrocomputing

Con il termine retrocomputing si indica una attività di "archeologia informatica" che consiste nel reperire, specialmente a costi minimi, computer di vecchie generazioni, che hanno rappresentato fasi importanti dell'evoluzione tecnologica, ripararli se sono danneggiati, metterli nuovamente in funzione e preservarli.

The front of "slowpoke", my SGI Indigo2. He still works, rocking IRIX 5.3 with a 100mhz CPU, 96MB ram, and almost 9GB of hard disk space. I believe in 1994 he cost somewhere around $45-50k, and I bought him in 2004 for $15 from a drug dealer that didn't know what he had.
