I found a new case and powersupply dirt cheap a short time ago and excitedly pieced the motherboard and drives into it (congratulating myself on being such a genius) before I realized that I had overlooked one minor detail. I forgot that the 20 power connector was located at the top of the motherboard for convenience with the Pentium 3 era machines, while the case was designed to load the PSU at the bottom. So, I cut a few pieces of humble pie and bought an extension cable (which just arrived).
Here are a couple pictures I took:

Of course I should post the stats I'm sure:
Aopen DX34R-U motherboard
2x Tualatin 1.4s CPUs
4x 512MB PC133 RAM
250GB IDE HDD (I figured I'd stick with IDE over SATA for the nonstalgia and era accurate results)
CD/DVD IDE optical
GeForce 2 video card (for now anyway. I might get my hands on a workstation card later for kicks)
*I plan on adding a floppy later.
I guess that's all for now.
