Thats a cool mod! I like the plexiglass window that has the logos in them. Did you sumbit them via email? It may not have gone through right now.

Thats old new Pecker, but we definitely appreciate the effort. I believe that is posted as a mod guide on this site.

There's a clear acrylic Mac on display at http://www.xlr8yourmac.com.

How 'bout... to have two optical drives? Or more hard drives than can fit in the Mac's case? Or just to have something that looks 'better' than the Mac case (beauty being in the eye of the beholder)?

And then there's the ultimate reason: coz some guys just like to tinker.

That's basically a Mac clone. I have several of the PowerComputing towers and they are great for adding stuff. It's a basic PC case that holds 4 opticals and room for 4 regular height drives. Plus you could mount 2 or 3 drives on the case floor.
It would be like an easy bake oven inside and could probably bake a cake in it.....

One of mine has CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD, Jaz, Zip, and currently only one hard drive inside because I have an external SCSI 4 drive Data Silo. But I could add a DVD-R and 2 more small hard drives without a problem.

The Power Computing cases were nice, but they were just ATX form factor cases with different I/O covers. Also, FYI, the power supplies in those fry like no other. Well, not the actual power supply part, but the fan inside of them.
Standard 80mm if you were wondering as well.

I would look into the heating issue and check the P/S fan. That was the issue in the Power Computing I used for a while (never actually owned it).

Now if you want expansion, get an old server case for a dual 486 and attatch your current board in there. You could easily expand to 8 external removable bays and atleast 6 internal drive spots. The only downside is that you would probably have to go external hard drive enclosure inside and drop firewire to the drives after you run out of PCI slots.

But the clear cases are not my thing. They are okay, but they lack the comfort of grounding which I like to have. Can't afford to messup.
