Well, I went ahead and bought one of the graphite cases from eBay. $85 including S+H. Does anyone know where to get good prices on 400W power supplies?

eBay?

Personally, I think sticking with a Mac case is a good idea. There's something that you loose when you put a Mac in an ATX case....

Just my two cents. :P

Heres the best places to buy PC parts and sometimes you can find some mac hardware.

pricewatch.com
newegg.com
ebay.com

Even Froogle is a good place at times.

I found a 500W power supply on Xoxide for only $29.99 without S+H. Should I get it?

http://www.xoxide.com/logisys-mesh-500w-psu-blue.html

There's also this one for $19.00 on NewEgg. I know less about it, however, because there is less description on the page. It has a switch, unlike the other, but no power out for a monitor. My current monitor, however, is a 15" LCD Studio Display, however, so I suppose that doesn't matter. I think I should get this one.

I've looked at some clone cases, and none of them really spark my fancy. The one generic case that does is the X-Structure case from Xoxide. And, well... I don't know. I still think it would be so much cooler to build it into a G3 or G4 case. Sorry, MikeMacn... I think I'll pass on that offer. It would probably end up being cheaper to buy a case off of eBay, even though I have no solid confirmation of case state. Pictures reveal some, but not all damages.


Ahh its ok, i think im gonna make my own PC-Mac, after i get my new G4 of corse smile
