How did you acquire this? I legit think my younger brother would seriously love a computer like that.

Compaq back in the day sold an officially licensed Hot Wheels desktop around 1998-1999 ( not sure if this is the exact model).

I only know because I drooled all over this as a kid when I saw it in a Compaq catalog.
