I have got my rebuilt computer workingnow and it is so fast that I wish I could connect it to the net.
But this is what I am proud of. I put a light on the inside of it and now the whole thing lights up at night and it looks AWSOME!!
Here are some pics of how I put it in.

The switch that turns it on and off.

Thanks. But my mom don't like it at all. Its neat but I found out that its a BIG heat producer so that means that I'm going to have to put another fan in that computer. LOL

No she don't care about that because its not her computer. She just don't like the way it looks but then again she don't like the way any of the bikes that I built look. So its really no suprise.

Scob, I feel for ya. I just don't show most of my work to my Mom anymore unless I know it's something that interests her. And I never, ever show her my writing . . . :rolleyes:

You just have to know your audience, guy!

I'm going to wait until tomorrow when I'm at the store on the DSL connection to look at your Creation :D

I was going to ask if you had to put another fan in it, that looks like it would generate alot of heat.

In my opinion. I think dells are still OK. Someone that I know just got a brand new one and it works really well. How did your son ruin it? I haven't put the fan in it yet but I have put another light bulb in it.
