Ok here is my first mod job, it includes cutting the case for the window, this case has no side panel
and that really made it a ######. Cutting a hole for an 80mm fan in the front for better ventilation, its under
the plastic front. Painting the case internals and externals, the inside was painting black along with the
inside of the cdrom and its button, and floppy door and button, and the on and reset button. The case and cdrom face and floppy
face were paitned aluminum accordingly. I changed the led's for the power/ide and the cdrom, the floppy
didnt survive the change(my first time soldering, heh heh), I switched the big ole ugly cables
to round ones, this cost me a pretty penny. and some other minor stuff like drilling hole(biggest pain in the . if done with wrong peice)
for the cathcode switch.

I plan on adding another switch for the El Wire and putting a window with a custom applique
above the cdrom to fill in the gap, aswell as a PSU mod and makin the cdrom top windowized. Jeah.

yeah the window in the front will ad a lot, especially when i make the cdrom a window as well, it will look great, thanks, any more suggestions? also I would have more fans but my temp right now is 34degrees Celsius on the CPU and 27 in the case, and thats suitable for me. also, I have no more power supply for any more fans, theres a fan cooling the hdd and a fan feeding the heatsink nice cold air, my room is always cold so you know, once I put the window in the front I think it might get a little bit toastier, anyways any more suggestions?
