“Too much stuff…” I live in clutter most of the time because the current project always takes too long and bits for my next projects have to be collected and stored until needed;… “Too much stuff”.
In 2004 one of my hot projects was building out the ASUS T2-P Terminator (bare bones Pentium 4 system). At the time this was bleeding edge PC tech. Our system got passed around in the family and finally came back to me a year ago.

The system ran Win XP Pro but was of no interest to anyone any longer so I set about putting it out for the e-waste pickup. I changed my mind and stripped the system retaining the case and several bits (sub-assemblies). The motherboard, AGP video card and IDE optical drives went into the e-waste.
I stacked the bits back inside of the case and set the top cover back onto the case frame. I then proceeded to step around the derelict thing for several weeks as I went onto new projects.
Over the next few days I will share photos and the details of this “Terminator Revisited” project.
I have been out of work for about six months so my “keep busy” projects are intended to be low cost (little or no additional outlay). The TR is an example of what a tech pack rat can accomplish given the motivation.
More to follow.
Good modding,
