Goliath Triple Cooling System

[delacroixp]

This project reminds me of the IBM PS/2 model 80 .

I had a Model 80-041 in '87 (released Apr 2 - check out John Dvorak, PC Magazine) .
32-bit MCA bus at 16 MHz, Intel 80386 DX CPU, 4 MB RAM, 2 x 40 MB ST-506 HDD, VGA (640x480 x 16 colors), Caldera OpenDOS 7.01
It even had a math co-processor.
It was built like a tank with rock-solid sheet metal... full weight was over 60 lbs (27 kg).

Of course, there's no comparison with a custom built rig like the Goliath.

I must say... I'ld love to get hold of one of these old rigs, rip out all the innards and do a PC version of Wrecks to Riches , Pimp my Ride or American Hotrod .
It would make a super server allthough, at 166 mm wide it's a bit narrower than your regular PC case... and DVD ROM's will have to go vertical (2 slots available)... lots of HDD space !
