    most useful/interesting case-front addition?

    A supplier messed up and I have £30 to play with for something to go on the front of a black case (also getting the side window). Was gonna get this but despite what the page says they are OOS for a week.

    Any ideas for something usefull and interesting? Having said that perhaps this is a case that should remain understated.

    How about an extra DVD recorder?

    (seriously, a piece of useful hardware shouldn't be much more than a piece of - err - not as useful hardware

      Chrystalfontz and MatrixOrbital make nice LCD displays... Depening on how you use the computer, such things can be interesting...

      (I love to get one, but don't really have a use for it )

        I think we'll stick to a card reader.

        BTW this case is fantastic! Even has a wind tunnel for the CPU/mem.

          So how aerodynamic are the CPU and mem-modules?

                  Why would you put an old AMD in that case?

                    Oh, there are cardreaders that dock into a 5.25" bay; but can be removed.

                        What you need is a PlusDeck. It is a cassette recorder for a 5.25" drive bay. It comes with a freaking driver diskette, for Pete's sake!

                        There's an Opera in my macbook.
