    Do you have it sitting on a particle board shelf over a tv or other entertainment equipment? lol

    I did have it on a particle board book shelf at one point in time. it held up just fine, so I wouldn't be to worried about it.
    Whatever can light up, should light up brightly and in many different colors.

    Cool, thanks. Might just have to keep our entertainment center for a while then. The shelving we have now is that really cheap particle board and plastic. Says each shelf can support 25lbs. Not sure I would even want to get close to that. lol

    Still waiting to hear about the aluminum. Going to call him tonight. What do you think of separating the main hardware (motherboard/gfx, psu, and hd) from the monitor, dvd, and power buttons? The problem i found with that so far is I am limited to a 3ft Sata cable for the BD-Rom drive unless I can get connectors to convert it to eSata and back or I would have to get an eSata Card.
