After my old '386 went to the Bit Bucket in the Sky, I bought a '586 which was a mid-tower case. Before I started to put the hardware inside, I spent some time making sure that my home box looked like nobody else's!

Another distinct advantage of having a Case Mod on your computer is when you bring it in for service and you call them to see if the job is done, they always know which computer you're talking about!

A signature feature of my case mods is that the Power Button is coloured a nice bright RED. Call me old-fashioned, but I really miss the days of the old IBM PC (and Clones) that had that big red paddle switch, or Big Red Switch (BRS)

Some of my case mods are for sale, click on the 'FOR SALE' link to contact me to arrange payment and delivery. All cases for sale include the Power Supply.

This is the result.....
