   The power supply is at the bottom.
   An ST m.board is not much bigger (if any) than an IBM m.board.  My
ex-roomate has a tower case w/ 2 3.5", 2 5.25", and 2 hard drives and
seems to get away with it.

   Just out of curiosity, (because I want one too) do you already have an
external kerboard in mind?
