Hi I bit the bullet and bought a G4 Quicksilver case off e-bay. Now I've got it but I'm now starting to think I'm a little over my head... :( I knew I needed to use a Micro ATX MB. As far as removing excess metal and retaping screw holes I've got that down. Where I'm running into trouble is adapting the power & reset switch to work on a PC MB. Lastly I'm looking for advise on how to adapt the back plate with some level of cleaness :) SO... if there is already a nice guild out there or a thread I'd be appreciative of a link.. Otherwise if anyone has any experience I'd love to hear any advise. Thx
 
Hi. I've done a g4 to pc conversion before now.

As far as the back plate goes just cut out a new one from aluminium, I've done it before and its relatively quick to do.

The power switch is more difficult as apple don't publish their wiring diagrams. I just made up a new switch plate and led mount behind the old ones.
