I dig it!  Especially the marquee  ;D
Should probably move this to Project Announcements though.

Nice.  No T-molding eh?  I am not so confident I'd want to try the t-molding myself anyway.

Nice. I like it!  It has the look of a classic cab, just compacted.  Do you have any advice to mounting a PC to a board like that?  Or is it as simple as finding a spot for everything and bolting it down?  Nice job.

nothing special. just a dab of hot glue. the mobo has everything onboard, so no worrying
about pci or video cards moving. if it ever needs replacing i can just trim the glue and replace
the parts. Hot melt glue is really strong enough and cleaner than nuts and bolts.
i just used an old pc that i had handed down to me.

Great advice.  I actually used my wife's glue gun on my cab last week, but wouldn't have thought of it for that.
