I wonder if it's possible to chop away an 800 back panel and replace / integrate it with the 7200 back panel? I never knew the these machines had such similar shaped logic boards.

While many Mac motherboards use a pretty similar form-factor, there are some differences... I have compared the 840AV to the 7600 board, and among other things, the power switch is differently located (left on the 7x00, right on the 8x0). I don't think a 7200 front part would fit the (awful) 800 enclosure
