This should be interesting to all:  I am runing a C3 giga pro with the 
onboard nic and two 3com nics.  256 meg of ram and CF drive.  It is 
extreamly fast.

I have a few minor issue to figure out, those are extreamly low on the list. 
over it works well.  Can anyone recommend a small foot print case that I can 
put this in.  My system is on the gallery web page.  I would love to find a 
1U or 2U case with a riser that it would work in or a extreamly small desk 
top case.

I looking to save on the power bill and the 500 watt power supply is over 
kill for my situation.
