rescued this the other week

Symbolics 3640, one of the smaller members of the 3600 family

still has a couple of free slots, so my friend it�s going to can add the floating point accelerator and maybe another few megawords of RAM, and really take advantage of the fact that it requires a 20A circuit to itself

it already has a pair of several hundred megabyte full-height SMD drives too, though they�ll probably be replaced with emulated MFM for load bands, worlds, & pagefiles, and everything else will be over the network

it took three of us to get it into and out of the back of my friend�s SUV, it�s about 300lbs

still lighter than the Apollo DN10000, that thing is neutronium or something it�s so goddamn dense

Cool, you can run the entire US banking system on that bad boy

yes, especially if you order the mac pro wheel-kit, glue that poo poo on, and add some LEDs

Tatsujin: Apr 26, 2004; EVERYONE EXCEPT THE HOT WOMEN

over 20 years of computer builds taught me I suck at ducting cable so I finally gave up and bought a skull canyon NUC two years ago, slapped in some laptop memory and a 1 TB M.2 SSD, got a 4 bay NAS with 4x 6 TB WD Reds, works for me

I also found an old Optiplex 760 and upgraded the gently caress out of it (8 GB memory, Q9550, SATA SSD, 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 7570) to play hacked arcade games, and ripped out a PC from a ReVolt arcade cab for win98se/dos poo poo

the 5.25" CD-ROM is on a mini-rail with a 3.5" HDD turned sideways so it fits behind it. love the power switch and external molex connector too.
