Anyone have an old AT computer case they aren't using?

All else fails, I have 2 486 chassis in my closet.
One even has a 486dx4/100 in it....
I haven't powered them up in years, so I'm not sure if they work. 
They're missing one or two of those plastic blade bay covers.

To exercise power costs effort and demands courage. That is why so
many fail to assert rights to which they are perfectly entitled -
because a right is a kind of power but they are too lazy or too
cowardly to exercise it.  The virtues which cloak these faults are
called patience and forbearance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
