[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] Info on IBM-type cases/power supplies

seamus@bucsf.bu.edu (Jeff Rizzo) (02/12/91)

Well, I've decided for sure that I'm going to do it... move my A500 motherboard
and other goodies into a PC-type case.  However, I don't really know much about
the cases available.  A few questions:

1) Has anyone out there actually done this?  I'd like experiences, descriptions
   of your setup, horror stories, whatever.  What size/type/brand/whatever case
   did you use?

2) What are the size or mounting hardware differences between the different 
   PC-type cases available.  All the model-specific names don't mean a whole
   lot to me. ("AT","XT","baby-AT", etc.) What would YOU recommend?

3) How much should I expect to pay for a case new/used whatever, preferably
   with a power supply.  I think I can interface the power supply myself, as
   that's more or less in my line.

4) Got a case/power supply you want to sell me? :-)

Thanks muchly,
jeff
