Hello everyone, I have just got my hands on an old Dumb Terminal from 1982! I do plan on putting a current system config inside, but I will not change the outside (much). I want it to appear to be the original dumb terminal it was back in 1982, until you turn it on!
Sweet!
I'll look forward to this one!
I would like a case like that, but the only time I see them is on eBay in the US and postage is too prohibitive...
Don't know what you think, but that would be a great gaming set up for like the old time arcade type games
Agree that it can turn out very nicely. As for the old time arcade gaming rig, someting like this can be interesting too ;)
Lot of old cases being modded; impressive!
BTW, whats that comp in the back; the green one in plastic?
That's the SuperBee PC I built for my in-laws. They're in the middle of a home renovation and don't want it around with all the dust in the air.
Here's the specs for the Dumb Terminal:
Motherboard: Micro ATX w/onboard Video (geforce 6100) and Audio (Realtek 7.1)
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3500+ w/factory heatsink
Memory: OCZ Platinum 1GB (2x512) DDR2-800
PSU: 480 Watt ThermalTake
DVD: Plextor Slot Loading DVD-RW
LCD: 12.1 Inch
I've decided to get the AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ instead!:banana:
With that small of a space to work with, wouldn't you need a 1U PSU? Also, the upgrade seems nice. Just needs that "annoying orange" 80's touch, like in the old PCs running DOS :p.
I'm still whacking the PSU around in my head. I don't know what I'm going with just yet, but I am thinking that I will have to construct a bracket inside to hold it above the motherboard
