My thoughts are to pull the guts out of the cool case and drop a large IDE
drive and small 486 mother board into it then run Linux as a NFS with an
ARCnet card I have. Of course the purist in me will force me to mount
everything to existing holes and wrap the guts up good in protective
anti-static bubble wrap so I can undo everything when it loses it's novelity.
Speaking of which, anyone have any Tandy computer shells that I could BUY
to wedge a 486 into?
