You mean you've never ginned up DCL in EVE? Me, I love DEC terminal function keys.
If you want really fun game, try opening TECO, randomly mash the keyboard, and try to predict what will happen.

I remember back in October, 2012, I saved a Dell PowerEdge 6300 server from getting tossed out. I still have the hard drives and the processors (will be used as record holders) to this day.

Never mind the P4 and ASUS badges, they will be replaced tomorrow with K6-2 and 3dfx badges (currently being printed).![]()
I did not bother with retrobrighting the front panel, I'm not sure that it's worth it.

By the way, where are you printing the badges? I'm in need of some, too.

Your memory may be serving you wrong.. I believe the T10 cases were introduced in 2000 and popular in 2001 or so, that makes it more a P4/K7 era case than a P3/K6 in my opinion..
I realize it's not half as pretty in its new housing, but I think that will change once I retrobright the front panel some day.
The T10 is now housing my Socket 754 Athlon64 3200+ / Radeon X1950PRO AGP system (which is currently not working due to wahat I think is either a weak PSU or a VIA vs ATI driver mess; either way that PC has issues that need resolving![]()

I don't remember exactly what the case was, only that it was a monster cube with 14 drive bays, though I only managed to fill 10 of them. I had an extensive digital media collection I guess. Those drives made nearly 2TB altogether.
(Edit: It was a Yeong Yang Cube case)
I built it just after the Athlon 64 X2 had come out, but they were so expensive that it was actually slightly cheaper to build this dual-Xeon monstrosity with an Asus NCCH-DL https://www.asus.com/Commercial-Servers-Workstations/NCCHDL/
Two Nocona core Xeons (P4 based) at 3GHz gave me 2 cores/4 threads. 2GB of ECC DDR @ 400MHz, Leadtek AGP 6800 Ultra, Creative X-Fi Xtreme Music.
I mostly played Battlefield 2 on it. Sadly missed machine, I don't own a single bit of it any more.
