[sdiy] OT? Shielding a rackmounted computer

Hi Karl,

Lots of companies make rack mount computer cases that will accept your
existing motherboard, drives, etc. New rack mount cases can be a bit pricey,
but I see these things on e-bay all the time so I would check there first.
Basically, the best way to shield your computer so it doesn't interfere with
other equipment is to surround it with metal. :) In essence, that what the
rack mount case does. Of course, you've got to leave enough holes for
cooling air to circulate in and out and again, that's what a good rack case
does.
