Re Assemble............Warranty Do they have an Internet address? I am considering buying the PC Power and Cooling(PCPC) case first. I have emailed them with a question about the available slots. There are only seven available in the mid size tower. The full tower has an option for twelve slots but I don't know what you have to give up to get the additional slots. I am intrigued by the "two SCSI ports". The only thing I can think of is that this case can also be used as a SCSI tower. One would come off the SCSI external of the Primary computer and run a SCSI external cable to the port on the PCPC case. One would then use an internal ribbon to attach to the 8 drive bays in the tower. If I go this route I will be able to start building this machine soon. (my Compaq still has some life left). I could buy the case,power supply,CD SCSI and maybe a SCSI 2GB or 4GB harddrive. This could be run off the SCSI daisy chain on my Compaq. When I am ready all I will need to do is add a motherboard,RAM,video etc. This would rule out someone else putting this thing together but I am looking forward to the challenge. ( actually I think it will be quite easy). The toughest part is buying the parts. Regards Zeuspaul
