Need help identifying a PC

There is a lack of markings on the exterior, so I took the shell off and on the inside there is a sticker that says Computer Source International Co., Model: PS-230. Pretty sure that should have been the nail in the coffin, so to speak, but Google searches return nothing.

If it helps, it's got a turbo button lol.
I was told it was ordered in the 90's.

Halp.
 
You should know it isn't speakers by two things:

1. He says it's a computer
2. It has a turbo button, like a lot of computers did in the 90's

The PS-230 is the power supply from a computer

I'm going to guess this is the sticker you found:

What are the system specs, or even just a motherboard model/manufacturer (should be on the board itself somewhere)?
Does it have a name or logo on the case?
 
Then he should have said ps-230w, not ps-230. huge difference. the speakers were the only i found with that model. Take a chill pill.
 
There's a small square box on the outside where it seems a manufacturer emblem would go, maybe fell off? It's under the Yeah that's the sticker, but it doesn't have a W. It's only a ps-230. I can take a picture and upload it in a minute. It says Pentium(r) in the settings, but my Google searches for that led me to computers that looked nothing like this one.
I'll upload a picture in a second.
And it's definitely a computer, not speakers haha. Never been so sure about anything else before in my life.
 
Download CPUz from here:

ftp://ftp.cpuid.com/cpu-z/cpu-z_1.62-setup-en.exe

and install + open it. It will tell you all about your hardware. Go to the mainboard tab and tell us the manufacturer/model, it will be the best way to tell what you are using.

You won't get anywhere searching for Pentium, there are thousands of different models using Pentium chips over the last 20 years

=EDIT=

It will read HI for MHz as well because the turbo is on. I would imagine if you press the turbo button it will change to LO or something similar
 
I would love to search and download that but the computer isn't connected to the network here. It's just used for a few programs.
 
You can download the program on your current computer and then take it over on a memory stick/CD or even floppy
