It isnt one of those?:
http://www.randomology.org/tom/dual90.jpg

I pulled that one out of the dumpster couple of day's ago.
I wasnt so much interrested in the box (dual p90) but more
in the drives that it has. Whole bunch of 15150's. I also found
4 more machines that had 50pin scsi drived that I rippe out
(single p90's).

As you can see I got the machine up and running even in this
bad shape (totally bent, missing front cover and even the power
switch was ripped out. All fan's where loose and the front cover
to the dat drive is also missing)
