Built in Britain by Birkby's plastics in 2001, this E250 is packed with upgrades.
The E250 was introduced in 1998.
in this video, Vic opens up this baby and points out some of the upgrade possibilities, hoping to transform it into a superb 3D workstation.

Specs:
2x ultrasparc II processors @ 400mhz
Propietary Sun Ram 128x16 (Stated to be the official maximum capacity, though i'm certain 256mb sticks exist, so 4Gb might be possible)
Sun "intense 3D" XVR-500 PCI GPU
6port LVD SCSI backplane, half filled with 3x seagate cheetah 18/36Gb HDD's
creative labs soundblaster PCI
68pin external SCSI port
and a mass of networking options
(NVRAM is currently dead)
