In article <5D862396DD20D211836200805F65C14F08A786@steamer.raremedium.com> you write:

I believe so - ISTR when we bought the system, we bought the case and 
motherboard as seperate items.

However, it isn't designed for standard ATX/AT style motherboards - it
takes an active PCI or ISA bacplane and the you put in a PC on a card. 
Capax do a whole range of PC's on a card, up to PII 333MHz. I'm sure I've
also seen dual processor cards, but I can't find them on their WWW site.
