That's almost exactly what a few of the IIfx's in my MacStack are earmarked to become! You're only missing two horizontal case separation bands and a slot-loading CD-ROM opening!

Nice! But where did the side panel come from? Is that the top of it as well, or is it from something else?-------------------------- Give your dreams a chance.™ - Apple in the mid '90s Warrior maclover5 68k Macintosh Liberation Army Number of 68ks Liberated: 6

That's from the side of a normal IIsi - just tripled up, and distorted a bit for perspective :Ddana (and it's a IIbx - bx for boxy of course) Quadra 605 Obsessions
Cool. For some reason that side panel just screams "13" AppleColour Hi-Res Display". Btw, i'm guessing that bx is "boxy, expanded"? -------------------------- Give your dreams a chance.™ - Apple in the mid '90s Warrior maclover5 68k Macintosh Liberation Army Number of 68ks Liberated: 6

Too bad the fixed res monitors won't work on the iMacs video port... or I just MIGHT use an apple high res display on my 68kiMac hack...~Marchie ~Chaplain Marchie Admin of The WonderLAN ~~"We are all Mad here"~~ |

Nah just boxy. :)it does look very similar - then again the bits were all designed about the same time - like the 5100 powermac http://www.danamania.com/images/5100.jpg (cept they didn't come out too well in that pic)
Cool. I know what you mean about the bits looking the same...go the ol' Snow White theme! Btw, have you seen a IIsi with a 13" Hi-Res monitor popped on top of it? Its sooo cute! -------------------------- Give your dreams a chance.™ - Apple in the mid '90s Warrior maclover5 68k Macintosh Liberation Army Number of 68ks Liberated: 6
