Finally, I have find time to reseat all the parts and to start the machine (many of the things were out of their positions after the transport). It's surprisingly fast! It don't feel as a slower machine than my 175 MHz Indy. And the 1024x768 resolution is not that bad, too. Well, now I have both generations of the Indigo at home.

Thank you very much!

A more recent version of the CalculiX http://www.calculix.de/ would be great.

Fossil Wrist PDA version 2.0 - a smartwatch that runs near full version of the Palm OS 4.0. A funny thing, but very functional.

Probably yes - they state "Dragonball Super VZ at 66 MHz".

Yes, it is. There is no more space for expansion. Actually it's a very nice update: 3D stuff is much faster now. Visualization in the MeshTV were very slow withoiut the Z-buffer card and now are OK.
