The outside of the case, from the side with the fan port. Cooling was just as important in the good ol' days as it is now.
The back of the case. Notice that there's an empty slot with no back plate... this is probably not a good sign of things to come.
The side panel of the case by itself. Mmm... furry...
The back of the power supply. Not so bad, maybe this won't be as terrifying as it could be.
The front of the power supply. On the inside of the case. Might've spoken too soon.

This is what the motherboard looked like when I got the CPU unstuck.
And this is what the heat sink looked like. It's a little hard to see, but suffice to say that the darker line along the upper curve of the heat sink shouldn't be there.
