Sure, but the ports on the back are in different positions, and you'd either need a 1200 keyboard or do a little work to get the 500's keyboard wired to the motherboard.

You'd probably have to cut some plastic to get all the ports usable and you'd need to do a little soldering (4 connections or so) on the motherboard to get the A500 keyboard working.

It's definitely an easier option than putting it into an ATX case.
