I also gathered from your posts your machines are mostly about running games. Aren't you mostly interested in graphics cards and sound cards?
But not a gamer, though! (Despite constantly emphasizing phrases like "DOS gaming" when discussing the motives behind including peripheral XYZ in his BOM.)
Anyway, whatever. The terrible mistake I made here was guessing that the reason someone would open a thread on a forum like this is they actually wanted opinions from people who actually had some experience with the thing they were trying to do and, well, giving an opinion. Like them or not my takes on those ServerWorks boards was fact-based and, in the context of the time they were making them not even remotely controversial: they were not intended for "recreational use" and they mostly suck at the things people interested in recreation want from their computers. (And, again, I babysat several racks of these things back in the day and even took a couple home after they were retired at a fairly young age; which I subsequently gave away *for free* after realizing that there wasn't a single thing that I might want to do at home they were good at.) Once or twice in this thread the OP has chucked out the vague suggestion that he might want to explore "other things" besides games with this computer, but I at no point have seen even the wiff of clarity about what those things might be. (Or any requests for suggestions.)
But sure, whatever, *more* than happy to leave this alone.
