(Update: This is not a blasphemy mod. It was a product sold by SiliconGraphics in Germany. There is even a spec sheet for the Espressigo. Ask google if you don't believe me)
and again, for the people who falsely accuse me of modding an SGI Indigo. I did not! The Espressigo was an actual product, sold by SGI in Germany. Here's the spec sheet: (see alt text for EN translation)
@soweliniko The switches and layout of the controls look exactly like a Gaggia Classic so I expect it was made from one of them - sorry couldn’t find a very good pic of the older model online.
@Ifrauding yeah, I know the Espressigo. There has been also the Indy-Case (Aktentasche) and I think the Challenge fridge (although I don‘t know if that was official or just a customer built).
Another fun fact: when visiting SGI office in Frankfurt while visiting the Maya Beta First Access Training and to get the golden Maya Beta 3 CD (I was there with Tobias Richter from The Lightworks), you could see that the receptionists had SGI Octanes as their workplace computer to run SoftWindows emulator for their office programs. 😆

in reply to /usr/people/flexion • • •first, this is amazing
second, if it was actually a modded Indigo, it'd be maybe a little more badass actually

I'm now gutted that I gave my Indy away, otherwise I could turn it into one of those and stash an Arduino in there to play this when it gets opened 😀
