Thanks ... unfortunately it's a bit too deep -- the old PSU was 3.75"
deep, that one is 3.94".  The problem with this case is that there is
very little room between the PSU and the hard drives, so 0.19" --
seemingly minor -- is actually the difference between just barely
fitting and not fitting at all :-(.

All in all I've become disenchanted with the custom chassis - If I'm
going to spend money, I'd rather move in the direction of using parts
that are more mainstream for easier replacement.  That's why I'm
curious to find out what a miniITX board mated to an 80+ PSU draws at
the wall outlet.
