Sorry, no photos available at this time -- I am somewhat space challeged and I will have to dig it out --My notes say it is a D.O.S. 486-25 - DOS is the builder -- motherboard is 486sx-25 with 4mb memory -- power supply is 200w I think - It is a small tower unit, looks good outside not beatup -- I replaced it with P1 quite a few years ago when hard drive failed --unfortunely I never seem to chuck anything out
