I plan on installing my own MB and periphs, and am just interested in the case/monitor/supply. Anybody recommend a good source? The only ones I've seen are in the Computer Shopper, priced around $1400 and the suppliers are all from the west coast (kinda tough to check ot quality and fit via mail-order on something like this). I would prefer a vendor in the Chicago area, but would be willing to take recommendations from someone whose already done this. Thanks, Jeff P.S. Anybody hack a Compaq Portable and add the 9" color monitor? If so, how did it go? I would consider this as an alternative I don't need the horsepower, just the color :^) [this is going to be a salesman's demo box]. -- _____________________________________________________________________________ F-14 | _ | | Jeffrey M.
