I thought you guys might like to see some pics of the dos/windows 3.1 machine I was working on.

I *WAS* trying to post pics with photobucket... but I was about ready to crawl through the screen and wring it's neck!

Anway, the specs are:

DTK motherboard with TX chipset
Penrium 233 with retail fan
Seagate 6.4 gigabyte drive
AWE64 sound card
DOS/Windows 3.1
What do you think? 😁

I like the Rusty cyberpunk power supply in the first picture, where do you get those? 🤣

Should make a descent all-round Dos win3.1 machine, what video card have you got in there?

Actually the power supply is not rust at all.... it looks that way because of the way the light is bouncing off..

The video card is a VenusT80 with a trident chipset and 2MB of RAM

I knew it was not rusted for real the moment i looked at the second picture but i found the first picture to be an art piece of sort for the impression of rust it gave.
Sorry if my ambiguous reaction was misleading, 🤣

This was a real conglomeration of parts - pretty much all the old stuff I have in one computer.

I used to run win95 on it... a long time ago, until I got way better machines for that, and then it sat on a shelf for a very long time. I guess this is its' second incarnation.
