    cutting down computer

    i just purchased a compaq ipaq III 700mhz small desktop.

    info here if you dont know what it looks like

    turns out its not small enough to fit under the seat of my jeep. any ideas on cutting this bad boy down? i havent tried taking it apart yet, hopefully tonight, and i can take pics as well. do you think i should build a seperate case out of plexi and just move the parts over? any have any experience with this?


    thanks

    I cut down my shuttle case and all I needed was a sheet of metal, a Pop-rivet gun and a few nuts an' bolts. I took apart the case, cut off everything but the bottom (where my mobo was mounted) and fabricated a new top, where I made a mount for the PSU and HDD.
