A vacuum insulating glass (IG) unit is provided with an indium inclusive peripheral/edge seal, preferably deposited originally in the form of a viscous slurry. The use of such material for the edge seal permits lower processing temperatures to be used. This in turn may in some embodiments allow thermally tempered glass to be used in IG units without losing substantial temper during the fabrication process, permit certain low-E coatings to be used, and/or allow a lesser number of supporting pillars to be used.
