I didn’t know there’s a console with the floppy and disc drives. And it’s missing the stand piece but I’m satisfied overall. I haven’t powered it on yet because I want to test the power supply and give it a good cleaning first.

Did you turn it on via the console? Because I don’t see a power button.

The word you want is aesthetics. Ascetics are religious people who abstain from all forms of indulgence and practice extreme self discipline. Things like sleeping and living on a 1 meter square column 40 feet in the air while communing with the gods type stuff.

I’m not sure because I don’t think i can turn it on with some kind of modification. I don’t see a power switch so i’m guessing the console was responsible for that.

I’ve wired in a switch like this for my PC https://www.newegg.com/p/1W7-005X-000C0

Thank you for the recommendation! I found the little tactile switch to boot the thing but I haven’t tried it. Still need to test the power supply before i try to boot it.
