    I hope someone can answer this for me..

    My PC needs a new case. After looking around, I'm not really excited by what I'm seeing locally.

    I've been thinking about putting the peg in a smaller case, which would then allow me to just move the PC into the case the Peg occupies now. I've been looking at micto-atx cases, but I'm a little concerned about the height of the cpu card being a problem.

    This is what I've been looking at. Will this work, or should I look for something else?

    It will work!
    Here I have got one (Black/Aluminum) regularly working since one year.
    In my config I have installed a DVD-CD reader and a DVD-CD reader/rriter and two Hard Disks
    There is just a little prob with usb front ports: both seems not working so I have to use just one of rear ports.
    I'll try to ask help to solve this annoying problem to german reseller...

    Pegasos (both 1&2) has only one connector for front panel USB (the other one is routed to AGP port, but I don't know if any known AGP gfx card uses it for anything :-)

    If you want more than one front panel USB, you could buy an USB HUB that fits the front panel.

    Hmm...
    My Aspire X-QPACK/420 Aluminium case has 4 usb ports : 2 front + 2 rear.
    The problem is that both front ports don't work since I bought it! The only one working is one of the rear ports ... not really comfortable to access :-(
    I'm afraid Vesalia staff just didn't connect the two front ports...
    btw! There's another prob. : among other things. I am not much skillful with hardware modifications... :-)

    simple thing to do (i did it) :
    get yourself a USB2 PCI card that works with the Pegasos, plug it to a PCI slot and plug the front usb plugs on this card. it works great and will provide u with more USB sockets.
