I have a G4/AGP which is starting to burst past the confines of the case. Does anybody know of a third party vendor who manufactures a case that will fit the G4/AGP mobo ?

Do you mean you ran out of PCI space? There is a manufacturer that makes an external PCI expansion box. There is also a manufacturer that makes a box that allows the G4 to fit in a Rack. I forgot the names of these manufacturers, but are any of these two choices what you need?

Sorry, no. I mean that I would like to transplant my computer to another case, with more expansion room (not necessarily PCI lots, but internal HD and CD drive space. Perhaps a redundant power supply and an extra fan or two. Basically I need a case that fits a G4/AGP mobo.

Hmm, I would say you could use any PC case and just move the LB mounting pegs around

Ouch! $599 for a rack mount G4 case. Who makes it, Apple?
