I bought it new way back when. It came with a pentium 233, which I upgraded to an AMD K6-2 500. I had to cannabalize 3 old rigs to put this thing back together.

The board is a Shuttle/Spacewalker HOT-591P Socket 7.
It has 2x SIMM & 2x DIMM sokets, AGP, 3x PCI, and 3x ISA.
I have 4 CPUs for it, a P90, P100, P233, and the K6.
I had to visit Classic Platforms to figure out how to hook up the AT PSU.
Here's a pic of it running.

Actually space shuttles/aircrafts do run on primitive hardware, (though the cost still run into millions) because 100% stability is the concern and the exorbitant cost is just for absurd level of quality checks.
