Rybags Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Might be an interesting project. There's a bare-bones ST Mega4 case on eBay. I was just thinking, an XEGS should fit with plenty of room to spare, but the 1050 as well might be pushing it. Naturally it would involve some hacking of the case, and also likely pulling the 1050 into it's major components and mounting wherever they'll fit.

+kheller2 Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 are those the same size as the mega file cases? I always wanted to put a HD and an XF551 into one of those cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctor_x Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 wow.. what an excellent idea!! even more excellent would be the xf551 modded for 3.5" fitted into a mega case. WOW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+poobah Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 wow.. what an excellent idea!! even more excellent would be the xf551 modded for 3.5" fitted into a mega case. WOW. That's probably doable. put the xe board in along the left edge, xf board under the floppy, retain power supply from the mega Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of 1200xl myself the other day when I say a mega4 going cheap on ebay... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmel_andrews Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Good idea rybags, all that needs to be done is re wire the xegs console and power button keys to the top or front of the mega st case and hack the keyboard connector to the mega st case as well (and also another sio port for addit. 1050 or xf551) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
