I love these work stations. Many (15+) years ago I used an Indy like a sort of dumb terminal, using X forwarding. It was very cool to use an application like a modern Firefox on such an old Unix installation even if it really ran remotely. It worked quite well remoting from a modern Ubuntu computer. I still have the Indy (and a small assortment of other old SGI machines, including 2 Indigo 2s), reviving these machines is on my bucket/todo list. This video sure makes me want to grab one (the Indigo mostly) and get all nerdy. Would love to see more!

Today you have a modern Dillo fork (the one from Github) from the ex-Nekochan guys.
