Hi.

You could ask Jeff or Malcolm if they have any Pismo casings.

Subject: Pismo case swap

Hello friends,

I just picked up a pismo "parts machine" for cheap -  after about 3
months of failing to get my lacie usb card to recognize anything other
than a keyboard or mouse on my wallstreet, I have decided to focus on
a new project.

The pismo has a good screen and motherboard, (so I am told) but the DC
board has broken loose and the case has been destroyed. After
purchasing an anti static mat, and examining the disassembly guide at
http://homepage.mac.com/sysop/PhotoAlbum7.html , I feel confident
taking everything apart in order to solder the power board back in
place. However, once that is complete, I need to transplant the pismo
guts, keyboard, and screen into my wallstreet case.

Has anyone attempted this before? I already anticipate hacking the
case to make way for the usb/firewire ports, and I will do whatever it
takes to get the rest to fit, within reason. Mostly I am concerned
about the possibility of a difference in the display mounting hardware
between the two cases, or perhaps a similar obstacle for the optical
drive? Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,
-Kris
