an early "IMPACT-ready" model? or perhaps someone has swapped skins, so there's a teal R10K MAXIMPACT somewhere :)

sgtprobe - how many GIO slots?

I have an IMPACT-ready R4k in a teal case, so my guess is a skin swap.

Hello, It's an Impact ready machine. PSU and the GIO slots are ready for Impact. Might upgrade to MaxImpact one of these days maybe, but I really like the Extreme graphics inside. Quite potent actually, especially in Softimage, besides, the Extreme boardset looking so damn sexy in there I think I might just let it be where it is.

Considering how hard the MaxImpact is to find these days plus the cost of the same, maybe it's for the best. Oh well, one of these day's I might get lucky and find a set of boards locally, but wont hold my breath for that to happen. :P

As a side note, I might add that the inside is just as clean looking as it's exterior. :)

Pics of the interior, PLEASE!!

And btw, did you do anything to restore the case? Looks fabulous! Any tips will be deeply appreciated!

She has some fine dust inside, but not as much as I anticipated.

Regarding getting the case in it's current state. I used some form of Black armor for cars plastic interior. But the skins was in pretty nice condition to begin with. Some scratches can be helped by using a good quality artist eraser.

Cheers!

Ain't nothing finer than a fine naked Indigo with a gun. And that's all kinds of fine, even without a gun.

Awesome pics! Thank you. I am so behind on all my SGI projects that it is getting depressing!

Yeah, it's true, I did photoshop it, added some dust and scratches so you guys wouldn't be too jealous :P

Would be cool if I also had the original box it came in with all the wrapper and stuff. Wonder if there are some machines out there, still in it's original packaging?

It does happen occasionally, but not very often. Around the beginning of this year somebody found a number of Sun SPARCstation 20s that had been warehoused, unused and still in their original boxes, and offered them for sale through eBay.

oh damn it!! Too late for the SUNs. As much as there is this fascinating thing about old UNIX Workstations... its even MORE apealing when they come in original packaging. I just saw an originally packaged Next Color Station some months ago, the shipping box itself is a beauty with the nice NeXt Logo on it :D
