PC archeology: The HP Vectra N Series, a well made pizza box PC from the early 90s

#PCArcheology
On today's video, another episode of PC Archeology! We have two HP Vectra machines, both from the early 90s and it's an interesting look at where the PC industry had gone in the 10 years since the original IBM PC 5150 came out. Massive amounts of integration and improvements had happened in that short time.
