Couldn't help myself, had to mock up a 19" rack panel for fun.

Let me guys know what you think. I'm going to probably design the chassis around a blue glow theme. The 6 slots are for 7-segment readouts, the I/O connectors are panel-mount Neutriks, and we have a big red emergency start button for fun.

This panel is designed for if I decide to watercool the unit. The radiator and fans are moved up front for heat in the winter and because the front of the rig is usually the least impeded (if it's on a desk or in a rack, the rear plate will be up against a wall or enclosure panel; we want efficiency - since when have you put a computer against the wall facing the wrong way?).

Again, let me know what you guys think.

The upload is of bad quality but I think it looks pretty snazzy.



It's a start. Maybe have the option of liquid cooling it for silent operation, but that's just a luxury.

True. I'm probably going to build the first R&D prototype with a liquid cooler for efficiency, although production, when we get to that point, will most likely have it as an option.

For those of you who are following the project, check the buildlog - I updated it.

That being said, we could still use more contributors, in any range from hardware to software or even financial/logistic concerns.

There's an amazing amount of work between idea and implementation, especially when production is considered.
