Relocating ports to be mounted flush to the outside of the cabinet???
BillyJack:
I have purchased cables from cableclub.com a few times. I got a really cheap firewire cable from them, and I think I've gotten a SCSI adapter and cable from them before. They have just about everything you could think of as far as cables... Oh, but I gather you're probably "down under" somewhere... (sorry about the down under phrase) so that may not help you out at all.
anyway, here's the link:

If you're just mounting the board inside the CP, mount it right up against the back. When you buy a new MoBo without a case, it will come with a bunch of little metal back-side templates that you can simply mount in a cut-out on the back, then mount the board on pcb feet to match. Fin.
SirPoonga:
you can always get extentions and mount those.
IIOIOOIOO:
But why bother?
BillyJack:
Well, for one, it would put the motherboard at less risk of being accidentally damaged. If you jack around and destroy a port, you'll just be destroying an extension.
