The LCDs
The very generous people at Matrix Orbital decided give me a shiny new pair of the brand new
GX Typhoon LCD-displays, and boy are they awesome! I'll put one on the back, and on on the front of the case.

Initially, I didn't expect this kind of support - so I had designed the back to fit a 128x128 display. So, I had to make it a bit wider (the Typhoon is 240x64). Such problems!

I put the mounted behind a piece of AC Ryan Mirror2 two-way mirror. As you can see by this somewhat crappy set of pics, the LCD is invisible when it's powered off and perfectly viewable when the computer is on.

Time for the front! This pic shows pretty much how the display is mounted. I made a cover from some aluminium and some Mirror2 to stay with the theme.
Final touches...
I've only got a couple of things left to do before calling the case complete.

First off, I bought a pair of 60x60mm fans to cool the PSU at the bottom.

I also redid the tube"holder" on the back, since I've decided not to use any tubes in there at all.
Finally, I did a whole pile of small stuff, but it's really not worth mentioning. So forget I even said it and let's get on to the part everyone's been waiting for!
