    I admire your determination to restore an old PC with little to no collectible value. Aside from being manufactured by a now defunct and historically significant US computer company, it's merely a Digital branded PC with the same generic hardware found in other machines made in the millions. I purchased a Digital PC server back in the mid-90s at a fire sale after the company closed its doors for good. After a few years, I remember chucking it away and keeping the hard drives.

    Thats my first PC. Mine was the venturis 433sx but it looks similar to this. Hearing yours start up brings back memories of when I either had to do homework on it or play Doom. Doom ran ok on the limited 4mb ram it had built-in (with boot disk) but it was a game changer literally when I upgraded the RAM to 12mb and got a sound blaster card. Also threw in another hard drive for a whopping 700mb of space.

      "Stained glass windows". :D Sorry. Near 30 years makes it almost a medieval artefact in the IT world. :D It's Windows 95. The first version of the OS that had "Mass market" appeal. Up to then, Windows was still just a basic graphical user interface that the average seasoned MS-DOS user just feel was getting in their way. Even up to Windows 3.11 you still really did need to have at least a basic understanding of MS-DOS to do anything more than simple tasks. 95 was (For the time) rather pretty, and it also did a hell of a lot of hand holding for new users. It really helped bring computers out of the workplace and into early tech adopters homes.

    Looks like it has Olivetti origins, the metal case design (in their documentation referred to as "Slim Tin Box") is 100% Olivetti, as used on their M4 and PCS line, but with some design tweaks to the external plastics, though I will give props to DEC for putting an actual ISA socket in the low-profile slot, Olivetti just put a pin header there which limits the use of that spot to a soundcard that is as rare as hen's teeth to find... :)

      @@vintagematter I used to regally scrub smaller circuit boards from old games consoles and handheld games using plain tap water and a soft brush, but then they'd go in demineralised water with a corrosion inhibitor in my ultrasonic cleaner for a long, but low intensity cycle at a medium temperature. After that I'd usually blast them with IPA to displace any remaining water, and leave them in a warm place for at least 4 days before they'd go anywhere near power again. Things like Gameboy Pocket boards would usually come out of that looking BETTER than new, because pretty much all of them left the factory with flux residue caked all around the power socket solder points. I've still got a few of the Gameboy Pockets I did this to, and all still work flawlessly. I actually had one of these apart to do some upgrades a few months back (IPS screen, Li-PO charge board, clean power regulator, upgraded speaker). It had been deep cleaned as described somewhere between 7 and 10 years ago, and still looks perfect inside.

      With the strictest use of the term "Computer" there was not only Analogue computers (The Babbage difference engine, and the Enigma machines are two mechanical computers that spring to mind), but there was also Biological computers. The word "Computer" originally referred to someone who worked doing complex mathematical calculations. They were usually in offices surrounded by other "Computers" who would be calculating things like total incomings and out goings of a company, tax returns, and various other cost/statistical data. Accountancy firms used to be the main employer of "computers", then they slowly replaced them with what passed as a digital computer back them. The name of the "Computer department" would remain the same, so the word "Computer" slowly became connected to the mass of valves, relays, wiring, and punch cards that took over the role. It sounds stupid, but I was once curious why the word for computer SOUNDS like "Computer" in most languages, and during my reading I came across the English usage history of the word........ It's never a waste of time to learn something new, even if that new knowledge might not have any practical use. :D
