For a second there I thought you were talking bout a suitcase.

hmm. well i was bored last year.... Bought 5 of the metal switches. you know they have a little stick you either flick up or down.

i took the cover for the floppy drive slot (what would cover the hole if there was no floppy) and drilled 5 holes. put the switches in..... one switch turns the light on and off, the others turn differnt fans on or off.

thats pretty much it tho. if i have time at somepoint id like to add little LED lights over each switch that light up when they're on.

As for a "suitecase mod" I'd never be able to find the pic, but I once saw someone who made a samsonite luggage case into a pc case. They had the motherboard lay flat in the bottom (Secured with screws of course) and added in a graphics card, sound card and hard drive. I belive they used a firewire CDRW drive.

Had fans in it too, twas quite cool.

Heh, amazing what a little google image search will turn up, although this isn't the one that I had seen before.
