I would like to hear from anyone who has attempted using a tower case
for their 3B2/300 or 310. I would really be interested in knowing
which case you had used and what problems you may have encountered. I
really wish to do this for cosmetic purposes and to remove it from my
desktop while still having it nearby.
I would strongly urge you to consider a very easy solution: get the upright
mounting base (as sold for Mac II or IBM-PC/AT systems) and simply clamp them
to your 3B2 case and stand it on the floor. From my recollection of the case
for the 3B2/310, this should be NO problem at all!
The bases "should" be around $20 for a set. Some are fixed-size and some are
adjustable, but, in general, look like (cross-section):

And are attached to a computer like so:

They work well and free up a LOT of desk space. You can get even more desk
space by mounting your monitor on one of those suspension-arm assemblies so it
"floats" above your desk, but those arms cost around $100+ or so.
All the above are available in most computer stores and mail-order catalogs.
