To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
AMD Athlon XP 2000+, Gigabyte GA-7VTXH+, Zip Drive LOL Remember those? I don't remember any of the rest of the parts, long time ago. Things sure have changed.

Mods:
Cut hole for front grill, made grill from something at hardware store (roofing part maybe?), Cut window with 3 fan holes, automotive toggle switches, had some 12v auto accessory lights hooked up inside (didn't know what cold cathodes were back then), Antec HD cooler (didn't put a HD behind it, used for intake), One CD burner, One CD reader, (No DVD, LOL), Round cables, Electrical taped all of the PSU wires,

I thought everyone would appreciate this. I found these pics on an old hard drive of mine. I had totally forgotten about them. Pics taken in 2000-2001 I think. This was my first case mod if I am not mistaken. Still have the parts in their boxes outside, but the case was turned into a toy army base for my son years ago. Hope you all enjoy this walk down memory lane as much as I do.
