Cubid makes cases the are about the you are talking about. Flex ATX and Mini-itx are the type of motherboards you would most likley want to use. Slimline and 40 pin laptop drives would be good size drives to use also. http://www.mini-itx.com/store/ Has good selection although a little pricey, I normally find the part I want there and then actually buy it on pricewatch.com or froogle.com. LOL making small PCs is kinda of a hobby of mine... -FTen |

a mini-itx solution would be a good option... depending on the amount of horsepower you need.... (thanks to the people who linked to my site btw, appreciate it!) here's a deeper link on byopvr where i review a slim mini-itx case travla c137 from casetronic need a slimline optical drive though (notebook style). FWIW, if i'm not mistaken... planetjay might be selling his m10k setup soon on ebay... he modded a mini-itx motherboard into a satellite receiver case (unless he ended up using that IBM provista case I forget) *shrug* rampy |

Yes... I probably am going to put that on eBay soon. |

If you're into modding... Find an older single CD or DVD player that fits your size requirements at a pawn/thrift shop. It already has the drive bay, all you'd really need to do is fit the rest of the PC in there. It seems like you should easily be able to fit even a regular ATX mobo in there, you'd just have to get some horizontal PCI risers and a low profile power supply. It works beautifully in my head :) |

http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0165387 $130 with power supply. Black & Silver. That's what I'd buy. 17.0" x 19.25" x 5.25" (432mm x 489mm x 133mm) |
