Hey that's mine! I have a couple of flip tops, the other here, and yes they're great to work with. Very few AT cases give much thought to cooling, but a Pentium + Voodoo2 would be fine in all but the worst of them.

There's no trading on these forums, try amibay, and you didn't even state where you are! Good luck in your search, they don't show up often that's for sure.

What do you mean no trading. Its forbidden???

He means no trading - VOGONS is no marketplace!

I'll also add that it's kind of poor netiquitte to jump onto a forum, grab someone's pictures without attribution, and then make an unsolicited open offer to purchase the item; not everywhere is eBay. 😒

Anyways - I don't think it would be terribly hard to modify an existing AT/ATX desktop to have hinges although it would certainly be a somewhat custom job relative to the case you're working with. The simplest method I could think of would be to cutout an opening and use a piano hinge, but if you wanted something more elaborate why not use air struts? (you can generally get them at auto parts dealers) 😎

Alternately, eBay Search can be your friend:

Sorry. I really didn't mean to be rude. I don't really know anywhere where I could aquier one of these things and there hardly ever any good pc stuff over there. I didn't mean to be rude. I figured that some one on here might have one they'd let go of. I have some stuff I'm sure the right person would want but finding those right people is hard. I guess I should have thought a little harder.

PS I've been searching e-bay for this case for 4 years. bought a similar but not as good as one a couple months ago. It even had a replica looking at bezel. Case ended up requiring an XT power supply and having xt motherboard drilling.

Yeah the one I linked is XT as well. 😊

Honestly I'd just modify a case to have the "flip open" feature - 😀

I've thought about it but I'm fairly sure that in my hands it would end up being a butchered mess. I was saving up to buy a catweasel MK4+ once. Three months later I went to amigakit to buy it only to learn that it had been discontinued and sold out. It took me 3 years and the willingness to pay whatever the asker wanted to finally get a hold of one. Every time I've tried to use Amibay someone seems to snipe me. I started a thread there once asking for a certain part. By the time I woke up the next morning someone had already respond saying they had the part, and some other guy had responded saying he wanted it too, and the part was already sold to the guy who highjacked the thread I made seeking the part. I thought this time I would go directly to a source where I knew at least someone had the obscure thing I'm seeking. I really want to re-experience all the fun, magic, and excitement that was computing in the 90's. With as very little of the accompanying pain and misery that was computing in the 90's as I can.

Hopefully I'll have better things to contribute to this forum in the future.

I think you've come to the right place. 😀

One thing you might consider is seeing if you have a machine shop that does fabrication near you - I have no idea what you should expect to pay reasonably, but they might be able to rig up a flip-open for you. 😀

Yeah I ain't selling that one I'm sorry, but they do come up from time to time. Here's one being sold locally (to me), and actually I think this is the same seller I bought that ^ one from.
