Be Right Back, Uninstalling

It's a cardboard box, cut down so it will fit into the basement rafters. It's passively cooled except for a case mounted 60mm Delta.

AMD K6 400mhz,  ~300MB ram, AT motherboard, 1gb Seagate hard drive (run every day of it's life since 1997), onboard video, two Realtek 10/100 nics with cut down brackets, patch cords glued in place and PSU hardwired to on. I think it's been rebooted three or so times since I put it up there in 2003.

I demand pictures of the cardboard PC

nice joel you went with my case ;D you like it? the tool-less HDD bays are awesome!

Used the same case for the 'puter I built for my bro. Only thing I didn't like is that the pci cards were a little wobbly, but nothing to really worry about.

i shorted it with scissors to make it turn on

also the cardboard is from the box my PS3 TE stick came in, god that cardboard is so thick

We have practically the same setup.  But mine is messier.

Screwdriver. You used one to assemble your case, right?

Tried my screwdriver, it didn't work. :-X

My Rig still sucks. I'm probably just going to build a new box once i7's get cheaper. But that means I need money...

I could probably salvage my RAM (depending on the new Mobo) my video card (if I don't buy another) and my monitor. Hell, could probably keep my PSU and CD drive too.

i5 750.

meanwhile versus still spent $150 extra on that ps3 TE when he could've just bought a $50 accessory and paid for labor for someone to install it for him so his 360 TE would work on ps3.

what I'm getting to is: versus' dad spends too much fucking money.

• Generic SATA DVD-RW drive
  
• All of the above is sitting in an Antec 300 case with a Corsair 800 watt power supply in it. It's also got all of the fanbays full, since I didn't want any more melting graphics cardcooling issues.

Home Theater computer (HTPC): note: I need a better name for this one, and Entertaining Automaton just doesn't sound right to me. Maybe Amusing Automaton? Eh, I dunno.

• Running Windows XP (I do software development in a program that requires XP to work, so no upgrading to 7 on this one D
  
  I've got another beater laptop, a Toshiba (the original Ambulatory Automaton) with a 1.4GHz single-core Celeron, 1GB of RAM and a 120GB HDD, but the LCD bezel is falling apart and the battery is toast. Thinking about turning it into an essentially headless Windows Home Server with the addition of a couple large USB HDDs. Haven't decided yet though.
  
  Pics maybe later if I feel like stroking my epeen some more.
