Yeah, I hadn't seen this one but I like it. Love that the Apple logo is showing the logic board components....rockin'! :D

oh, cool. Didn't realize that you'd only be able to see the ugly plastic.
Yeah, it's messed up. Apple's tower designs back then weren't open inside like a PC tower. They usually had a skeletal framework of some kind.

They are?

Hmm.. I never really liked the PCI Power Macs, it's too hard to find RAM and a decent SCSI drive. I had several of those, and ditched them, went back down to Nubus and up to the G machines.
