    Go to an auto shop, get some of that stuff they use to trim doors, and put that around your cutout for the window. I cannot stand to look at that jagged edge, and with the trim on there it will look awsome. Buy chrome trim pls!

    I think its a bunch of mutations made from dust bunnies and metal dust. Blow them away please!

    LOL, it's a P4B266-C running a 1.6a @ 2.133Ghz..wasn't old-skool last I checked..

    Btw..this has only been running for a matter of weeks - first booted at ~1am January 18. It's not like it's been gathering dust forever...give me a break. I don't clean my computer every weekend..

    IIRC, it's actually window caulking..lol..but it holds just fine

    I need some sort of rubber something to go around the edge..it's a bit rough.

    Jeez guys, doesn't it look any better than a plain beige Enlight 7237?

    i really like the shape of the window, nice work. caseetc.com has got some cheap, black window molding you could put around the window cutout, i think it's only a $1 a foot. that would really put the finishing touches on that window

    How about YOU learn some grammar before blowing off someone's hard work?
    All he has to do is clean up the case, apply some finishing touches with the paint and some moudling, and its allg ona look really god. Come on CadetLee, make us proud!
