I have known the 'mounds' to be called 'cage nuts' (or captive nuts) when variations are used on 19" equipment racks....and they can be removed with your fingers, I just removed one from my PC board mounting plate.

If Zeuspaul's picure is any indication corbels.com
you just squeeze the two spring-like flanges inward and the nut pops out the back side...

I picked up an Addtronics 6890a medium sized tower ($80 COD, w/o power supply), its the next size down from this tower:
addtronics.com
(the case came with an additional fan... will see if I need it.)

I've added the PC Power & Cooling Silencer 275 ATX power supply $119...
(I wanted a quiet 34db unit... also the fan has ball bearings.)
pcpowercooling.com

I'm reviewing three 300a OC combo-prep websites, that have been discussed here in the past, and may order one.
But I REALLY want an ASUS P2B-L.... if only they had softmenu setup !
