how much space is in a typical cab?

Has anybody other than you ever seen the inside of your cabinet?

I'm just curious because the closest anybody's ever come to seeing the inside of mine is the inside of the CP area while I'm changing controls.

Obviously I can't speak for Minwah, but I'll pull mine away from the wall and show off the inside at the slightest provocation. Somehow the guts mounted to the inside of the cab look a little more impressive than if there were just a beige box sitting in there. :)

Same here really.  You're right it doesn't matter how it looks, but I personally like the guts outside of a PC case - same feeling as Stingray I suppose :)

1) securing the video card (and other cards if present)
2) mounting the drives
3) mounting the power supply

1) I just plugged it in - no-one can touch it so it is secure enough.

2) I only have a hard drive (I transfer stuff using a USB2 portable drive).  I mounted the hard drive using a drive bay mounting kit.

3) I just screwed it through some existing slots into the wooden board.

See this pic (outside of the cab, the board is removable):
