    do you mean where you can plug your shiznit into instead of going to the rear on the computer? why can you plug them into the back?

    Turn your computer around and have the back facing the front

    I don't believe they make one for monitors, though you could get a USB port panel to hook up a keyboard and mouse too...

    How would he get to his cd drives then? he would have to find something to mout his drives in the rear of the computer, hehe. On the other hand, i dont see how they could make a front panel for a vid card. it would have to be vid-card specific and be soldered (sp?) onto the PCB of the vid card to get the signal to the front, unless it was on-board video then you could do it.

    The only time there should be front-mounted ports of anything should be when those ports are used a lot. Meaning, Firewire and USB ports that are heavily used by your MP3/PDA device

    I need something like this:

    http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...?sku=i136-1000

    but I need a monitor port, mouse port, and keyboard port

    that is a good idea if i can't find one i'll just get usb keyboard and mouse and just use a cable for the monitor.....

    but has anyone ever seen anything like what i'm talking about?

    thanks

    I've never seen anything like that. If you're the DIY'er type you could get KVM extension cables and run them through your computer to a front panel. I'd just go USB mouse/kb, and I don't know why you'd want the video up front... If you change monitors or kb's that often between computers, just get a KVM switch.
    Stuff and stuff
