Oh man, I wish.

No, it's not mine. Just another novelty of the internet that someone cooked up.

A friend of mine has a working Indigo just like that, though. It's faster (bogomips-wise), and has more RAM than his main x86 box (96MB as opposed to 64MB, if I recall correctly).

There're some computer surplus stores down here near San Jose, probably closer to Sunnyvale, who have a lot of old (but very cool, nonetheless) stuff like this.

WeirdStuff is a very cool place, flexible prices, and a huge as-is (read: not garunteed to work) area, in the back.

Last I saw, they had some Indys, an Indigo, an Indigo2 case (no guts), more than a small amount of Sun hardware, and an original NeXT Cube (magnesium alloy case, and everything).

Very cool place.
