[lug] hardware offer: microatx case

[Bear Giles]

  I have a hardware offer if anyone's interested.  It's a weird beast 
that filled the early media center niche but there's far better hardware 
for that now.  But maybe somebody else can use it.

It's:
  - heavy gauge metal with black enamel finish
  - microatx(?) MB - not the standard size MB
  - 4 half-height slots.  N.B., half-height cards!  These can be hard to 
find.
  - one 5.25" slot, one 3.5" slot

Right now the MB appears to be fried - the power comes up but nothing 
happens.  It wouldn't be hard to replace the MB and CPU, toss in a SATA 
drive, etc., but I'm not sure what to use it for.  There's not room for 
more than one HD (so there's no RAID), there aren't many video cards for 
half-height slots, etc.  I know some people used them for media centers 
and I used it primarily as an email/web browser system but that niche is 
now better served by netbook-based systems with HDMI-aware video chips.

It's free if anyone wants it.
