That folding cab looks really nice but how would you connect the monitor and marquee light to the computer and stuff in the bottom half?  You need to run some wires somewhere!

You are assuming that the computer is in the bottom half. It isn't. The Mini-ITX form-factor allows you to put a computer into a very small area.  ;D

The only wire that will need to connect between the top and bottom is the PS/2 wire from the I-PAC. I'm thinking about building a home-made magnetic connector similar to the power cable on Apple's laptops.
