andrewtn@sage.cc.purdue.edu (Trevor Andrews) (03/19/91)

Has anyone used and IBM tower case and put an Amiga into it...if so could you or someone who knows the answers to the following questions mail me.

1)  How much work is there in cutting and work of that nature to the the mother board of an Amiga 2000 to fit inside and have the port out the back properly?

2) Can you use an IBM power supply to power your hard drives?  

3) Can you take the IBM LED read out for the MHZ that the computer is running at and hook it up to you amiga or a GVP 030?

4) Can you take the TURBO button and hook it up to a GVP 030 and have it turn on and off the board?

5) Can you take the RESET button and hook that up and have it work as a computerreset like a GURU button or even use it as a NTSC/PAL hardware button?

6) What is the key lock for on the cases and can it be used for something...anything?

Sorry if these questions maybe be a given for some people but I have never done this before and I hope someone out there might have.
The reason for going to the IBM TOWERS is that no Amiga company makes a good tower case, that I can find.  Must not be a big market for them.  
  
   Please any information would help on the above questions, send all
   email to:

   Thanks for all the help.
