What sort of thing did you have in mind as there is a vast array of after market cases.

Well I have painted my Dell Dimension 4700 Media Center Computer and I like it and all just that my clan in Counter-Strike: Source and all have LAN's a lot and they all have custom computers and I would like something like see-through or a case like from iBUYPOWER: Custom Build Gaming Computers Desktop PCs, Notebooks (http://www.ibuypower.com)

Dell cases and motherboards are usually customized. I doubt there is any such replacement, unless the motherboard is laid out in a Micro-ATX form factor, then your in luck.

If you want it to fit bad enough anything is possible, as for a drop in, that's not going to happen. But stand off insulators and hand nibbling tool you can get it to fit. The usb and front jacks are many times the hardest to convert. I did just the oppisite put a Bad boy mother board in my older gateway, so it matched the rest of the system. I used a sawsall on the rear original back custom panel and then used the template that comes with many mother boards to make a factory fit and look. Sweeet!
