I have been looking at 5 1/4 drive bay LCD units. Does anyone know of a full color one? I know this would be an expensive unit if it even exists. I'm so bored with my mono backlit one and can't think of anything else I could add to make my case stick out more.

I don't think that I've seen a full colour one.

However, if thats what you want, and you don't mind if its a bit expensive, check out what this guy did to his shuttle - I think you'll like it.. :cool:

I LOB that!

holy moly... I wanted a smaller wide color screen but that gives me some ideas, humm I know those shuttle boxes are really wide, I'm going to have to measure my case and see if any small LCD can be modded to fit in my case.

The one he used (which i can't find for sale in Britain, even if i could afford it right now) is only about 1/2 an inch wider than the cd bay above it, in the photos he shows, with probably another half inch non visible. Should fit in a standard case.

Of course, if i was rolling in it, I would buy the touch screen version, and mod a shuttle with it....
