Cheater!  ;D

I've ALWAYS used feet on my cabs. If I'm spending all this money on it, I want it to look great.

If your going to cut a $2 pen, or buy a bunch of hack nylon spacers/rubber feet for 25¢ ea, just bite the bullet and spend 50¢ on the feet. I can tell you its worth it. No motherboard uses more than 9 anyhow, so it's arguing the semantics of $5 vs $3.

It makes sense when you can't fit a case in the cabinet (such as a cocktail).

There is a (strike through the ones that not apply) MacMini, Asus EEE Box, ASRock for that.

Just be careful. Some oddball motherboards need a complete ground circuit in order to function properly. This especially goes for some small form factor computers that may have been recycled from embedded devices and/or industrial use. Had that issue with some via motherboards.

Why not keep the main board in the PC case?
