I painted the inside of mine white. It makes the cold cathode lights much brighter.

The window can be glued or bolted to the side panel.

Oh yeah BTW Ford have you put together that list yet? Maybe you can help me put the window in one of the days I co-op with you?? I seen a Celeron D that was only $5 more and it was a 3.33GHz?? Is that one better that the one we were lookin at?

I did a flat black inside on one of my old cases. It looked pretty cool, but a little bland. Also, you almost can't see any lights from the cold cathodes with a black inside.
