Ugh.  Yeah I should've looked more closely at that, my current one has 
the USB & power on top, though that's more convenient as I've got the 
front behind my monitor, his current one is in front and that's 
obviously better based on the schmutz on the the top, but the new one's 
coming with all that top mounted.

I don't have all the parts yet.  They should all be here next week 
except for the the case might not be here until after Christmas.  He's 
itching to get it up and running so I might do with 'cardboard box' case 
until it gets here.  The VC might not be here until right before 
Christmas, I don't see any point to using it until we get that though. 
I'll have to check if the CPU fan covers any screwholes too as I'm not 
taking it off to screw it in the case.
