Very nice and a great mod. However its now basically a Virus C. It would have been cooler to call it Virus C and keep the indigo colours. Now that would have made it novel. But I dont understand why one would want to call it VIrus Indigo.

I wondered what all the fuss was about until I hit pic6. Nice one! :)

Actually, there's not all that much modification to be made.

I took my own Indigo v1 apart today (for assessing the maintenance required for a couple of wonky pots that need replacing)...

* Took the keybed out: Pic1 (http://www.gobo.dsl.pipex.com/images/Indigo/keyz.jpg)

* When tilted, you can already see the outline of the "TT": Pic2 (http://www.gobo.dsl.pipex.com/images/Indigo/sanskeyz.jpg)

* Just a case of taking off the end-cheeks and the main chassis: Pic3 (http://www.gobo.dsl.pipex.com/images/Indigo/TT.jpg)

* Voila: Pic4 (http://www.gobo.dsl.pipex.com/images/Indigo/TT1.jpg)

The real mod would then just need a smaller chassis to fit the unit on to, and new end-cheeks.
