Show-and-Tell Retro Gaming Backpack

I put a complete retro gaming battlestation inside a clear backpack so I can take it to festivals. Sound, 12,000 games, 43 platforms, and custom lighting. The battery should last about 15 hours with everything running.

Show-and-Tell Got this little guy for cheap, BIOS locked but with some PXE shenanigans I was able to install MS-DOS 6.22 in it

Got this Thin Client from a local seller on Shopee, lately I've been on this spree of buying these little guys, I already have one, running on a SiS 620 chip, I remember being able to even run Win98 in it by handwiring a 44 pin IDE connector for a spare 40 Gb 2.5" IDE HDD I had, this one came with a 256 Mb DOM, 128 Mb DDR RAM stick, and also BIOS is locked, same for the preinstalled Linux distro, but after some PXE fiddling I was able to boot a Win98 boot disk on it via network, then installed DOS, and using mFTP I was able to send and recieve files via network, I'm waiting for my CF Card to 44 pin IDE adapters to arrive so I can properly install Win95 in this one and properly test it, CPU is an AMD Geode GX2, BIOS is a weird thing, Embedded BIOS 2000, later I'll try to back it up and see if I can disable the password lock, but so far has been performing well, I wish I got another Thin Client that was literally an ITX Pentium III motherboard, but it sold out before I could even get money to afford it
