hi everybody,
So, I finally have the parts and time to convert my 7200 to a G3.
Was told by several that they use the same chassis. Well, not quite as
it turns out. The back plate does not align with the inputs, but that is
easy to modify. The bottom supports for the mobo do not align and the
support pillar to hold the upper level; well it's complicated. It is
supposed to screw into an elevated metal piece merged with the bottom of
the chassis but although the Beige mobo has a place in it for one, it is
different.
I could improvise on all of this but if anyone has found a more
elegant solution than a drill, hacksaw, and various other ugly
alternatives, I would be happy to hear them.
TIA,
Anand
