so we know we can rack mount a first generation iMac. But what about the slot loaders? That might be a fun project for someone to take on....

Actually, I'm in the middle of working on this. I've almost finished up my printed circuit card and cable kit for the tray-loading case/power supply transplant, and am now working on the slot-loading power supply conversion.

I plan to post here when I get it working- It shouldn't be too much longer now. I'm sharing information with a fellow in Canada who can get his to boot with out the iMac power supply, and so keep your eyes open for updates on this project.
