Hi,

at the moment I have just a experimental setup.
I bought a Via Eden mainboard, a power supply, stole a CD-ROM from my main PC,
got a 256x64 LCD for free, made a homebrew IR receiver and made a PCB with some buttons on it.
I've no case at all and I've just screwed everything on a wooden board.
If I would know how to upload pics, I could show it to you.

I'm still fighting with the performance of my M-10000 mainboard (espacially the lousy onboard hw codec)
and the case is something I will take care about when I'm happy with everything else.
I'm looking for a case where I can build in my LCD and my buttons.
But I still neither know which case nor which buttons to use in my final solution.

I must have looked at hundreds of HTPC cases, but it was either not suitable or to expensive.
So I think that I'll have to build my own case later on.

Regards

Thomas
