That was my thought on it too.  After starting a project to accomplish much
the same thing, I decided it was a bit late to just go out and buy one.
Besides, it doesn't look quite right (IMHO).

Only half the case missing?  I realised I needed something from the HDD of
my multimedia machine this morning.  I've ripped all the components out of
the case to fit into the VCR case, so it wasn't in a working state.  I took
an AV cable, and a power cable to plug into the TV and wall socket, and
laid
out the motherboard, HDD, PSU and IR receiver on the floor in the front
room.  Well, I got the data I needed!  Not too practical though ;-)

Andy (will be hacking the VCR case to bits tonight)
