I'm taking all the old motherboards and other PC parts that don't work and nailing them to the wall in my work area!

As you can see it's pretty uninspired.

I'm going to add El Diablo's lid to the display

Remember the Ace 1000 I took apart? I love the power supply case. I may use this for something else.

Here's the inside. I can't find the wattage.

Could you put some lights behind the PCB'S for a wickid glowing wall of computer destruction?? Ive seen a lamp made from 4 motherboard that had all the bits taken off and formed in to a cube, And it looks sooo amazing.

what do you think about mini itx boards? Do you have to run linux on them?

I run nothing on them. I only use them for modding and testing parts. In that regard I think they're great and durable.
