| Old Skool Pimp  |  Help me identify this case please. Hey all...A family friend gave me this MAMMOTH case to save it from a garbage pile....I decided to take it...Just because its sheer size....It's such a LARGE canvas that screams for something cool to revive it to modern day life... Has anyone ever seen this case before or know its identity? I cant find any specs for it...but I know its almost as tall as my desk... And its VERY roomy... Its going to require an at to atx conversion.... as well as some serious cutting to get the psu to fit properly. But this thing ROCKS....I love working with older steel cases.... | |

| 'Da Doctor of Funk  | Nice case! Looks like it was from the same era of servers as some we had at work. Like this Compaq Proliant Storage System U1 (the weird yellow shadow must've been an option ours didn't have). That gray strip down the middle is tinted plastic that allowed status lights to shine through.  | |

| n00b-ass reviewer  | That is a 1993 Korean Foo Chung case that was made especially for SouthWestern Bell to handle enterprise PBX system for businesses and held a proprietary motherboard and processor made by PC Chips. Actually, I don't know but if you say anything with authority people will believe you. | |

| Eleven-Bravo Sitrep Writer  | Isn't that the case for the computer that housed the original plans for the Death Star? You know, before the Bothan spies hacked in and downloaded them, then burned them to a mini-CDR that Leia put in R2's slot-loading drive?  J/k, but yes, I can hear it screaming for a renovation, even from way the heck out here in KS... Or maybe that's the tornado siren going off, I dunno... If I'm not back online in about 5 minutes, keep on going without me... | |

Seeing these big server size cases for some reason reminds me of the old Cadillac Fleetwoods. You know the ones with the fins on the back. I think it would be awesome to take one of these and make it look like the old Cadi!  But that is just one idea I have.Last edited by Foe; 19-February-06 at 08:40 AM.. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
