Recasing an A1200 - A Novel Approach ?

[Jaruzel]

Hey,

Rummaging thru the junk in my garage I've 'discovered' an old  Sun Sparc 20 workstation.

It probably works but I'm more interested in the case, it's big, certainly big enough to house an A1200 motherboard, and has a slimline CD drive already mounted.

Before I embark on this probably foolish attempt to recase my A1200 ;-) , I'd be interested in any comments others may have ? Has anyone else tried to put an amiga board into something that WASN'T an AT tower or 3rd party amiga tower?

Oh, some pics of a sparc 20 for those who don't know what one is...

It's only a Sparc20 and practically worthless.

However I DO also have a Sun Ultra 80 (4x800Mhz, 1gb mem, 4x6gb drives) gathering dust coz no-one wants to buy it. Maybe I should attack that with a hacksaw instead... ?

Doh, yeah 450Mhz.  Major typo on my part ;-) I got as far as installing Solaris on it and got bored...
