Thanks for putting the keyboard there for reference, I wouldn't have realized how big they were.

You're welcome. A small child could fit in there!

I was about to follow up that picture saying that at least the front of that case ended up being 10lbs of cast aluminum, but the next one I got into more than made up for that beast of a case. 4 CPUs...wish the thing was in better condition so i could have started it up. This was a monster of a server back in the day.

the 2 loaded pentium pro expansion cards would bring $150 each at resale, nice score

Yeah, I really wish I could sell those. This server was really trashed, and had been outside through several storms. Nothing worked on it. You can see the mineral deposits on the gold fingers on the card on the left. It was sad that I had to scrap it.
