WOW, great site Joel!!! That did help a lot, and it looks pretty simple to do.  Your site solved my color or white bulb question. And the bulb you are using makes things a lot simpler than what I was looking at before with different viewing angles, mcd, and wave lengths. I think that I'll take a stab at it myself, but I still have a few questions.
How many LEDs can be hooked up in a chain to a single Molax connector?
If I wanted to light my translucent buttons, do you think that 1 6-HED bulb positioned a few inches below the specific cluster I want to light would be bright enough, or should I light each switch seperately?

I have around 15 LED's in my cabinet and so far have not had a problem. If I do ever I'll just use another power supply to power them. I really wouldn't worry about it,

1 6 HED led will be plenty for a track ball, just postion it so it covers the whole area even.

Great, I'll give it a shot then  ;)

Oh yeah, I forgot to ask you one more thing. Where did you find a clear blue speaker cover? That is really cool!

Industen:

It's a clear plastic grill that came with the car speakers. The speaker cones are translucent so I put 2 blue 6 HED LED's behind each of them.
