To the guys with the mounds and feet questions<g> The InWin cases I have been using have started coming with the mounds you speak of. These mounds have threads built into them, and line up with the appropriate holes on the mobo. These could only be for mounting the mobo there. In addition, the cases have stopped coming with the brass posts that used to serve as a setoff between the mobo and the case frame. If that weren't enough, I type this post (get it?) on a machine that has its mobo mounted this way, and so far I haven't seen smoke, and it's been at least a month since I transferred to this case. Seen about 20 others done that way, and haven't seen any reports of problems. I am not that knowedgeable about electrical and grounding issues, but it seems that this is the intention of the case manufacturer, notwithstanding Sean's warning. I'd like to hear more on the subject, since I certainly don't need anymore fried boards. Len
