yeh - that's what I figured. I have plenty of space to put it in, and a bigger case also might allow better cooling.

I'm back from the hardware store - add $1.36 for #4 machine screws & some washers. I was worried they might be too long (3/8") for the case of the Sony DVD drive, but using a paper clip to disengage the latch & moving the tray manually, it seemed fine.

Do you think the motherboard is secure enuff? It seems ok to me, and this computer won't be moved around much...
