desktop, I've gone for one of the nice hammond cases, like this ;-

no problem, the case I have is 356mm wide 216mm deep (panel area, not case
depth). its 38mm high at the front and 76mm high at the back, so I should
be ok..
I may have to mount some things a little closer , but I'm sure I will
survive.

Thanks
Paul

P.s. let me know when you want some money (oh, and how much)
