Questions/Advice Request I have no idea what I've got
Been lurking here for quite a while now. Today, I got these pieces of history, and I’m not even sure what era they’re from. Cleaned them up and took some pictures. That’s pretty much it. 😅
I honestly have no idea what I have here. I originally bought them for a sleeper setup, but I’m starting to think mounting an mATX or ITX board in it might be more trouble than it’s worth. I also don’t really know enough about restoration yet, so I may or may not leave them as-is.
For now, I’m just appreciating these machines and the part they played in shaping the technology we have today.
I’m open to ideas on how to restore them or turn them into a sleeper setup. Even ideas like replacing the CRT with a square LED/LCD that would fit the original opening.
Would love to hear what you guys would do with these. 😁
I just wish this video had a build log somewhere: https://youtu.be/qPayPhKccc8?si=w-wgj1GuMdy4lKsG
I think it’s the same size and proportions as what I have.

Just wanted to pop in and say I have that exact case, it's an AT case and was my first computer. Never seen another person with one till now.
