I can't believe I found this! I thought it was lost to the ages.  I was going through the closet doing some cleaning and found it in an old box with some junk from the 90s.  Glad I didn't just toss the whole box!

The only problem is that the cantilever that holds the left hinge is broken off, but I may be able to fix that.

Once my system comes back with new caps I'll be able to improve its appearance too! :D

You can mold one with epoxy clay.

Yep, I couldn't contain my joy to just this forum so I had to express it on Facebook too. LOL

What's on the other side of the door? Did you look? Was it this...

I've never understood how they come off for people?

I don't know how those things get broken so often, but at least you've still got yours.

And while you've got the clay out, try recreating the cover art for Exile: Wicked Phenomenon.  :mrgreen:

Presumably a combination of flash glare and because the Duo isn't pure black, it's very dark gray.

It was a quick n dirty picture from my phone camera.  It is, of course the same color as the rest of the Turbo Duo (dust and all) :)

As for why it broke, hell if I know, it happened sometime when I was a teenager.  I'm just shocked and pleased that I still had it somewhere!  I can fix that hinge no problem, now my Duo will be whole again (also with brand new capacitors!)
