Great thread! Just ran across it while searching for something else on Google.
I bought a Megacube EISA 486/33 new-in-box on eBay several years ago--it was still factory-complete with all manuals, disks, and accessories.
I set it up with a couple of Adaptec SCSI cards, two or three 9GB Seagate narrow SCSI drives, ATI video, Intel 10/100 NIC, 486/100 overdrive, etc. As I recall, I had NT 3.51 server on it, but don't hold me to that.
Unfortunately, I got really busy with a project at work, and ran out of time. So I removed all the cards and drives, re-packed it carefully in the original box with the original packing materials, and put it in the garage. And that's where it still sits today.
This thread is tempting me to get it out again. It's just a beautiful system, a tribute to Everex quality back in the day.
