I concur. I worked on Indigo, Indy and Challenge boxes, together with
Joze Senegacnik, another member of this group. Beautiful boxes, even
for today's standard (Irix 4 and Irix 5 at that time). Indy used to
have a webcam long, long time before it became standard. Playing bz
was fun, too. Good, old days!
