    Hi All

    I would like to build an all in one PC similar to the iMAC or HP touch

    Ideally I would Like to buy a case with the monitor and then add my own mother board, cpu, memory and hard drive

    I cannot find anything online and I am wondering does anyone know where I could get it

    thanks

    The usual route here is to, erm, make it yourself :P

    The other, fugly option is to take some poor innocent victim case and just stick a monitor on the side. Doable, but so Not-Sexy. There's actually an ATX case out there built around the concept. Poor fools :o Haven't seen it for sale around these parts though.

    EDIT: Here's Option 2. As you can see, it's a) fugly, and b) isn't sold anywhere that ships to Ireland. Double d'oh!

    Heck, why stop there!? See what this lad did. :D

    The simplest option = stick a net-top at the back of a tft. Like so. Net-tops are bit anemic though. You also may be able to find a second hand C2D laptop with broken screen, decapitate it and then stick the laptop "engine" at the back of tft, or even enclose it there into a perty box.

    If you do decide to go into crazy modding, do post pics here, please. There isn't nearly enough of those on boards.
