It's a cardboard box, cut down so it will fit into the basement rafters. It's passively cooled except for a case mounted 60mm Delta.

AMD K6 400mhz,  ~300MB ram, AT motherboard, 1gb Seagate hard drive (run every day of it's life since 1997), onboard video, two Realtek 10/100 nics with cut down brackets, patch cords glued in place and PSU hardwired to on. I think it's been rebooted three or so times since I put it up there in 2003.

  I've got another beater laptop, a Toshiba (the original Ambulatory Automaton) with a 1.4GHz single-core Celeron, 1GB of RAM and a 120GB HDD, but the LCD bezel is falling apart and the battery is toast. Thinking about turning it into an essentially headless Windows Home Server with the addition of a couple large USB HDDs. Haven't decided yet though.
  
  Pics maybe later if I feel like stroking my epeen some more.
