I have been reading through all the great case ideas that have been coming out lately, and I thought what I put together one that might be of interest to you.
My two main hobbies are computers and music. Because I have a lot of music equipment, I work with rack-mount items all the time. Since I started doing much of my music recording and editing on computers, I decided to get myself a rack-mount case to serve as my dedicated music PC. While putting the machine together I thought that this setup might make for a solid LAN Party PC, so I decided to kill 2 birds with one stone.
I had the computer components already in another a mid sized ATX case. All I needed was the rack-mount case itself.
List of components:
Abit BP6 Motherboard
Dual Celeron 400 Chips (sometimes overclocked to 500)
128 Meg PC100 DIMM
Maxtor Diamond Max Plus Hard Drive
HP 8100 CD-R/RW
STB Velocity 4400 Video Card
Creative Labs SoundBlaster Live
D-Link Combo PCI Network Card
