no matter how clean your hands are, your body will produce grease. all other cases this wouldn't show because the surfaces aren't reflective. this is a retarded design, ESPECIALLY on a portable device because you will be touching it with your hands a lot. comparing the grease of your hands to dirt is retarded, one is inevitable.

Do you have much work experience in the networking field? If so then you could couple that with your certifications and try to apply for larger corporations. The company I work for is very very small, at the time of that video we were just 4 people. We have grown a fair bit since then but it may be easier to get your foot in the door by applying for jobs at smaller companies, the pay won't be amazing but you will get to see the company grow and learn so much in the process.

Got mine second hand from a guy on XtremeSystems - If you had over 100 posts you could access the "For Sale" section of the website, not sure if that still exists now but was great back in the day. Got my PSU and Vapochill from there also. As the people were enthusiasts always looking for hte latest tech they sold them off pretty cheap for a quick sale which was a bonus also.

I'm buying an old and fucked mac/ibm/commodore soon, going to gut it, cut a line through the middle of the back and hinge that for easy access to what I'm going to place in there. Going to find a mountable screen that will fit inside the old one and stick that in there.
Need suggestions on an old pc that had everything inside a massive crt monitor, but not so old and rare that buying one would be mega expensive

Too bad no one developed that cooling concept much further

BTX > ATX

>>47836282

it might not be as good an idea as it sounds if you're going to gut an all-in-one for it, swapping a CRT out for an LCD might look pretty half-assed unless you put a lot of work into it since LCDs don't share the circular curvature of a CRT display, so you'll have gaps where the bezel curves to match the tube

Isn't that hard?

I always loved the G3 case design.

Damn that is sexy.

Those things are the utter epipitony of shit, I just put them in the corner of my room with my grey dells.

>>47836613
It was cool the way you could open it from the side.

You're shitting me, right?

I was thinking the same thing.
More likely someone who just watched that video.
A younger kid, no doubt.

>Good case but I seriously hope you don't gut it since a complete BeBox is worth money
i would pay up to 25 grand for a fucking bebox. that's almost half my yearly salary.

>>47836575
Get rid of the pinstripe, and you have a great case for the modern day.

windows users are far worse than os x users
if you use either os, you shouldn't be allowed to use a computer without supervision.

Oh fuck how could we forget to post minicomputers?
I shit you not Steve Woz had pictures of these things on his wall as a teen. They inspired the better part of the Apple & Apple II, plus the case design for the Altair 8800.

Trying to get one for fucking ages.

>>47837125
Do you have steam? I come across once and while, I throw them out mostly because they are just shit. If I find one I could let you know.

>>47831080

If you actually had the case you'll know those screws are only there for decoration (learned this the hard way).

To remove the front panel in that 300R you have to press the button below and push it hard. To remove the grill you just straighten those little grill things that hold it in place then stick it out.

I would kill for a loaded 400 MHz Rev A or 450 Rev B with SCSI, the rest are shit

t. stuck with 300 and 400 MHz shitboxes

>>47837097

Nope, air cooled rig. Idles at 30C most of the time.

I do need to clean the fans though.

Those cases where designed for the P4HT which the oldfags already know how much heat that chip put out.
An i5 running stock cannot put out that much heat.
