Performed Mods:
My good computer friend Sttomcat3 custom cut out the side-window opening, and installed the window/fan. The Acer case's original Acer OEM CD-ROM did'nt work, so we removed it and secured a black cross-hatch screen grill in which we mounted illuminating LEDs. He did the same to a front half of louvered former dual-fan 5.25" exhaust vent. He installed various LEDs in it.
Some case badges, and theres my Acer Aspire given a "Make-Over".
