| this one is good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECu6i6WR7mo
I was very impressed with how Steve has put this product together, it looks very professional.
If I was in the market for a new case and had an old A500 sitting around then I'd definitely be interested.
It's a shame that you can't buy one with a reproduction A3000 motherboard installed....now that would be really something

I'm looking at the AA3000+ for an old A3000 case I have
Not sure either would fit in the Checkmate _________________

If you look at the movie from #3 at 4:00 there is no 3000 mentioned, so without modification it won't fit I think.

As I understand it the 3000 mainboard is too large to fit the Checkmate... And Steven said something like "A 3000 should remain in the original case as it is bloody beautiful"
Or something like that.. Regardless, the Checkmate was not designed to hold a 3000 Mboard..

And it is!
It's the A4000 that needs a case upgrade, but I don't think that will fit either.
