Dang, wish you were in the USA. I've been watching for a 1u rack case 
for another iMac conversion. I did one a while back (jammed an original 
bondi blue iMac logic board into a 1u rack case), and it runs very 
nicely as my main file server now. I wanted to do a 2nd to use as my 
main web/ftp server. I've got the logic board, just don't have the 1u case.

Alas, shipping from the UK will probably cost me more than I have to 
spend on the project.
