Try to find a MicroniK A2000 tower, I think that case is really good (and good looking).
If you are going for the DIY approach you are going to do quite a lot of cutting inside the case for the huge motherboard, and you will need a bigtower. IMHO most modern bigtowers are ugly and have too much cooling so they look out of place in an Amiga environment.
The bomac tower worked by plugging the whole 2000 case (without the cover) into the larger bomac case. There was a large opening in the back the size of the original 2000 case. It had another power supply in it to augment the 2000 power supply. There's a picture of one here on a.org somewhere.
I like that idea since I don't have to anchor the motherboard and deal with the weird amiga port configuration. I thought I'd just cut the back out of an atx case and drop in the 2000 case. I'm worried about all sorts of things like the 2000 case being too tall for the atx case, or the back of the atx case just being too problematic to allow a big rectangular hole without falling apart or something.
I was hoping someone had done it already. :-)
If I were willing to hack my 2000 case, I'm sure I could fit a few more drives in there over the zorro slots. Maybe that's a better way to go.
