Right, I've got my old 166 pentium box out and decided to run an internet routing distro called IPCop on it.

It's a very big heavy desktop case, (due to the crappy inbuilt speakers) but the motherboard inside is smaller than the ATX motherboards I've seen today, its an AOpen AP5T Baby AT Mobo, so I'm wondering if there's any small cases (or Shuttle-style cases) that will support the Baby AT mobo, along with a NIC, 2GB HDD and a CDROM. I won't need a floppy drive since the mobo supports booting from the CD.

you tried some of the hardware links and stuff at www.miniitx.com ?

i know its not ITX but theres alsorts there. Failing that, why not just buy an empty rack mount case or something from www.maplin.co.uk and shove it in that?

That's well nice, but the question is, what motherboard does it support? (Baby AT, Micro ATX?)
