Does that answer the question?

In my defence, I've been too busy playing "Buggy Boy" on it since I did the dry build ... and have been to depressed by every man & his whippet having an Antec to want to mod the thing...

Nice!

I had an Amiga 500 for a while in the early '90's, but the mobo went tits-up on me...is that what you use for surfing pimprig?

No .. I know it's possible to upgrade A1200 hardware to a point equivalent to a modern PC, but for what I want to do on it - play old games & demos - there's no point. The only concession I've made to modernity is the adaptor so I can use a PC keyboard.

As for software, I've eschewed modern operating systems (apart from the add-on to move floppy disk images between it & my PC) in favour of Workbench 3 - I _like_ the way that when I turn it & the monitor on at the same time, in the 7-10 seconds it takes for the monitor to warm up & show a picture, the OS has already loaded...

i have my hardrives turned around in their cage, so the ide connector and molexes (moli ??) are hidden from view.

Right now I would say that my wires are. Displaced -- I just shove the wires out of the way of key parts and areas. Maybe a little cleaner then that but in no way, very clean. IÂ’m going to sleeve my power supply very soon. I hope that will improve the cleanliness of my machine.

well i got a little mad that everyone else's insides looked better than mine. so you can see the motherboard now but dont count on seeing much more, I'm using the god forsaken flat ribbon IDE cables. And my wires arent sleeved. I also just noticed that my mobo bundle has one wire that is at least two inches longer than the rest so i might have to take some wire cutters to it, or a hammer depeneding on my mood

You can fold the cables flat and tuck them between 2 Hdrives or a drive and the drive cage. You can also tuck them on the motherboard side of the case.
