Nope, it's the guts out of a �15000 (in 1996) server. Made by Acer and packaged up by Fujitsu. It's got 8 SIMM sockets, HX chipset, removable processor board (can be changed from 2 x socket 7 to 2 x socket 8 (P-Pro)). Adaptec thing as well. It used to live insode my main machine but I managed to break it (I thought) so I got an Abit TX board (f**king quick) which would support processors that the Acer wouldn't and a Diamond FirePort 40 (STILL looking for a kernel).
