[blockquote]Here are the shots of my HTPC case mod I did this spring. It is based on a PS1 mobile LCD monitor. I wanted to find a case that had a nice front bezel, but was flat in the size and shape of the screen, it turned out to be harder than I thought it would be. I looked at many stores and measured many cases, before finding the right case right in my own basement. It is an old ATX case, that had a 250 watt supply in it. So I gutted the case totally, and got out the dremel. I actually used the bezel from the PS1 monitor, shown in pic 2, I cut it out of the monitor housing and molded it into the front of the pc case. Pics 3 and 4 show how it is fiber-glassed into the case, good and strong.5 shows the hot glue I used to hold it all straight when fiberglassing. 6 shows the case, ready to begin finishing it. Notice the screw mounts for the LCD screen.[/blockquote]
