John,

I only need to fit (for now at least):
Micro atx mobo
2 x hdd
1 x dvd
1 x pci card
Not much of a server, I admit, but it does it's job and _never_ crashes
:-)
Despite being xp and running 24/7...
(I do my backup over the network, when I remember!)
Will need to beef it up when I start serving mp3's to 5 x ddr and 2 x
at, though.

Thanks for the offer of the pics, but my only worry was fitting the
vscomm card.
Would still be interested in seeing the pics sometime, though.

Thanks
Tony
