Hi.
I have got an old large fliptop case which i am thinking of doing up.
And the first thing that has to go is the ancient and very large power
supply.
There is already one large fan hole in the back, but for me to make use of
it a normal modern AT type power supply would have to go in upside down.
Is this safe/possible etc?

Thanks for any help.


BOB.
