Saw a clever thing the other day.  A guy around here who is
adventuresome is constantly piling devices into his
computers.  He was building a new hard disk, which he had
housed in a standard large tower case.  Such cases cost in
the vicinity of $200 by mail order, including a substantial
power supply, and have room for six or more half-height
5.25" drives.  True they're large, but on the floor they
don't take up that much space.  Also, they're not black (I
asked, he's not interested in spray-painting it).

Seemed to me a sensible solution to the housing problem,
especially for a person who frequently changes things
around.
