For those who haven't seen this, CERN has a picture of a replica of the first WWW server.

Nina Makes also made a miniature replica of the first WWW server. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to see details of the CERN sticker.

Here's another cool miniature cube replica that pays homage to the original web server.

Hmm, the link just has a picture, did they really create a Cube (case) replica at CERN?

Here's another 3D-printable Cube case, this one is for an FPGA board running xv6 Unix:

I edited the first post for clarity. I don't know if they created the replica or if it was done by a third party. I seem to remember that they have a video of this replica on display, so there may be more information about the origin of the cube on their site.
