Specs:
Guts from my cousin's Compaq Presario

My cousin is a Firefighter and had just bought a new Compaq Presario. I had an old case kicking around and we decided to mod the case with a firefighter motif and put the guts from his computer in it. Here are the results...

I appreciate the input. This case (as it is owned by someone close to me) is a work in progress. My cousin uses it for home and for his DJ gigs. As it happens, we were a little crunched for time. As the case evolves I will post new pics here....

Nice and clean, also the paint job looks like it came out good, and the stickers are done well, also is that board staying in that case because I see some missing mobo Screws, but just have to ask Is that a new style intake fan in the front inside of the case,LOL.

Thanks steelkane. The case was a freebie I scooped on the side of the road. It only had holes for standoffs to fit a micro ATX. His board happens to be standard ATX so there are a few screws missing. ...and , yes, it is the new "Invisible" fan from Acme.... (wink) Actually what you are seeing in the front of the interior of the case is the battery pack for the LEDs in the front of the case. They run in a strobe pattern. The circuitry and LEDs and lenses were pilfered from a toy ambulance...

Ok, thats a nice touch on the lights from a toy ambulance, I think If you typed that info in maybe your score would have be more.
