I Have a IBM PS/1 Desktop version, and i want to configure it in a classic '90 configuration... monitor over it. The problem is that my monitor is an IBM P72 (stunning Sony trinitron tube), a 17 inch monitor for a 20Kg.... if i put it over my PS/1.. will i destroy it? will I fold it over time?

It will be fine, those cases were designed to have a monitor on top. 20 kg is not that much, especially if the monitor has a big base. I would worry at 50+ kg.

They have a brigdd going through the middle to support the expansion riser card so it will not buckle.
