One of my good friends came down with schizophrenia a few years ago and has been in a program treating it. His current computer - that he uses every day - is a p200, 86mb ram, POS. He just got a new monitor for it, and so I've been putting together a new computer for him, just out of spare parts and everything I can find laying around...it's nothing special, but I think will be appreciated by him (I'm doing it so he can get back to work inventing, working on art - he's brilliant, but unfortunately afflicted). Anyway, the computer is a Duron 1.3ghz, which means that I can't use the case I had laying around (an old Elan Vital with horrible placement - the PS has to be removed to put in the CPU, add/remove ram, etc.).
I've been looking around for a good, cheap case that I can find in a Seattle-area store. Here's what I've come up with:
http://www.computerstop.com/asp/product.asp?product=1437&cat=118&ph=&keywords=&recor=&SearchFor=&PT_ID=
I know a bit about cases, and would prefer a Chenming or something like that, but I just can't afford to spend a lot on the case, considering I'm doing this on a shoestring budget. I'd order online, but don't want to pay shipping (ouch!), and need to send the computer off early next week.
Recommendations, as always, are appreciated. I'm in the Seattle area if anyone around here wants to sell me a case for the project, or knows of a better place than Computer Stop to pick stuff up.
thanks,.
