Re-boxing. It's like unboxing, but in reverse. View the pics backwards and pretend I posted this first.

Other Stuffs In the Box. That Boot Disk is my own handwriting. There was a time maybe highschool-ish when the HDD was gone but it would still boot BASIC or floppy and I could still play my MegaMans.

Interface cards: Hard drive controller, soft drive controller, not-quite-sure-port controller, maybeaSCSI controller (with clock battery?), and genuine Trident VGA card (with guessing a monochrome port too)

More pics to nerd out: Main logic board with logic close-ups. PC-XT 5160. Originally my dad's graduate research box; later my Treasure Cove, Treasure Mountain and MegaMan DOS box. I'm sure the 8087 math coprocessor helped with MegaMan. (*no. it would not have.)

slightly different issue maybe but I feel like if you want to be big on social media it should be for the purpose of funneling ppl towards the actual thing you make. these platforms are impermanent. readers will seek out your books in stores or check in w your webcomics website etc

Not a lawyer, but I would say this is absolutely what educational fair use was designed for. And are also a huge number of videogame livestreamers on YT who monetize, although again, providing other value. But there are also randos who have claimed (C) on game music and issue their own strikes...
