    Where are you putting it?

    I'm getting my pieces and tools together for some plexy work soon on some cases, been mulling over xbox (crystal) ideas too.

    Was thinking of removing the sheet metal faraday cage and replacing it with mesh (black/silver - haven't decided).
    Was considering putting a thin sheet of acrylic under the motherboard and lighting it with LEDs.
    Where would you mount the UV light source? Are you using a 10cm CCFL?

    I've to mount a serial port on the back (for X3IR mod), and am considering having a go at the VGA mod - though I may leave that for a 2nd devkit xbox or linux thinbox.
