Got those JBL Creature III speakers in the mail. They sound okay... not bad but my Altec Lansing ACS495s are much better.

Going to throw my ATI Mach64 2MB ISA card in it, and my SB AWE64 Gold. It should make a nice 486 build. Now I just need to determine a case and power supply..
Today: 60 brand-new (NOS) wired PS/2 mice for... 4 bucks. What a deal. 😁

No-name with two buttons and wheel. Nothing special, but who cares for that price anyway.
I have a Compaq Deskpro EP PC that is mostly useless to me because it has a boring i810 mATX motherbord, but I really like the thing regardless and spent a few good nights restoring it..
I stumbled across an older Deskpro EP motherboard: 440BX Slot-1 with AGP and ISA - would make a great reliable Slot-1 build.. Just 20 bucks.. I am so trying to restrain myself from buying it..

I own that and it's great. It doesn't like network cards, however.
Bought this little 430VX P200MMX machine for $5.

Brand new Dell AT102R Keyboard arrived today.
I see this ad since some weeks. Doesnt cost much money, but about 40 min to drive.
Somebody able to identify the machine in the middle? ACER? What kind of drive is this? Tape? Combo Floppy? But seems to be an AT-case which is a big plus.
Dont think the Compaq is worth the time however.

That thing in the mid seems to have a compact cassette/tape deck build in, never seen that one before..

It's really an Acer.
Looks like a tape drive but could be very well be a 5 1/4 inch floppy drive.

Same as this:
Alcatel ALC 8551
Made by ACER but also sold under other brand names.
AMD Athlon Motherboards CPU combo's with Via Chipset.
Terratec AGP Nvidia GT-5200 graphics card for my Terratec Build.
Is that Acer, not the one they sold as an PowerAcer or AcerPower or something. It is from the first half of the 90's. 386sx/dx to 486dx2-66 era. It is on it's head in the picture. Two 5'25 inch bays, tell me that it most likely is an 486 machine.
Don't eat stuff off a 15 year old never cleaned cpu cooler.
Those cakes make you sick....
