You know, those 3.5" bays with the front panel openings that used to be used for FDDs and Zip drives. What kinds of gagdets are there nowadays that you could put into one of those?

Cool, I could definitely use some more front panel port so I don't have to fumble around the back of the case. And I'm kind of disappointed that no one offers the combination cigarette lighter/cup holder bay in a 3.5" version. 🙂D j/k)
 
beware. more ports = more cables. don't even think about the ones with sensors, firewire, usb, audio, fan controller,etc all in one.

btw, these can be programmed to do pretty much anything through those 4 buttons: winamp control, fan speed control, you name it.

Ooo, LCDs. Too bad they don't seem to sell a black one with blue backlight 🙁.
