Linux is free and comes with compiz 3D tranlucent desktop.
search www.youtube.com for compiz and see how much
better it is from competing offerings.
Easy to convert cheap netbooks into fully functional
highly productive 3D desktop running dozens of applications
simultaneously whilst on the move.
Nothing matches the power of Linux on netbooks and compiz.
Certainly not pay for OSen that has limited support
unlike Linux which is supported forever.
Here is how its all done:
3D TRANSLUCENT COMPIZ
---------------------
Using extlinux to convert a liveCD iso to bootable SD card
-------------------------------------------------------------
Converting an ISO file to a bootable USB stick or a bootable
SD Card for EEE is easy.
Without being able to convert a distro into a bootable USB flash /SD Card,
that distro can't be easily loaded into netbook like EEE
and stand to miss out on users installing it into netbooks.
So I would recommend all distro mainters look at their netbook
boot strategy and offer something to boot their distros
from USB flash and SD cards or miss out on users installing it into
netbooks.
Having done a few conversions, a pattern emerges that works well for
most syslinux / isolinux / extlinux based distros.
1. Put your SD card or USB flash drive into your desktop Linux PC and
then open a console and type dmesg
You should see some line indicating your flash drive as
being picked up and allocated with a comment like sdc / sdc1 etc..
Remember both names - the first is /dev/sdc which is your
device name, and the second is /dev/sdc1 which is your partition name.
(Don't get confused between drive /dev/sdc and partition /dev/sdc1
or your drive could become scrambled eggs later on. Also remember
it may be called sdg or sdh etc depending what you see when you
plug in device and type dmesg)
2. Install gparted on your machine using synaptic.
To run it you can type
sudo gparted
in a console window and select on the right side the drive name allocated
in step 1. Right click on the bar that represents the partition
and click on manage flags.
Enable the boot flag and click OK. This makes the SD Card / USB
stick bootable.
3. Format the partition /dev/sdc1 to ext2 linux format.
This format is not directly readable under WINDUMMY Osen, but there
are free drivers for it - try for example www.fs-driver.org
The ext2 format is many times faster than windummy FAT so
ditching WINDUMMY file formats is advised.
4. Identify that you have syslinux or isolinux in your liveCD by
opening the .ISO file in archive manager and checking that it has
isolinux or syslinux directory somewhere in the liveCD.
In ubuntu, the root directory of /dev/sdc1 will not be writeable
unless you are in super user mode.
You can run
sudo file-roller
to open iso files like xubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso in super user
mode and extract all the files in the iso file
to the /dev/sdc1 partition.
5. Go to the flash drive and locate the syslinux (or isolinux) directory.
rename it to extlinux. Inside the now renamed extlinux directory will
a file such as syslinux.cfg or isolinux.cfg. Rename that to
extlinux.conf
6. Get syslinux - this is a boot loader and menu system for FAT based
file systems. Download the latest version from here...
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/
Unzip it and go to the extlinux directory.
On my machine path is something like this....../syslinux/extlinux
Run the program there by typing this - (note this command is updating
the partition /dev/sdc1)
./extlinux --install /dev/sdc1/extlinux
This puts a new file into your SD card / USB flash disk
7. from the extlinux directory change to the mbr directory
cd ../mbr
and then run this - again note this time its updating the device by
writing data to the first sector as opposed to the first partition.
sudo cat mbr.bin > /dev/sdc
(Note at this stage you may need to do some of the sudo commands after
entering super user mode to make it work properly.
So the above command would have been done as follows in Ubuntu.
sudo -s
cat mbr.bin > /dev/sdc
)
This makes the card bootable and useable in an Asus EEE and many other
PCs with SD card or USB flash disk boot facility.
After booting, you can install Linux on to local disk or an external
pocket drive. The pocket drive can be 7200 RPM giving you near desktop
speed.
This method tested and works for
1. Ubuntu
2. Slax
3. Knoppix
4. Puppy
5. DSL
6. GParted
7. gOS
8. Dynabolic
9. MoonOS Kachana
10. Xubuntu
11. TinyOS (incredible distro!)
(Note the method does not work for .ISO files built with grub bootloader -
need a different install method with grub boot loader instead of syslinux.)
Try installing something powerful like Ubuntu on to a netbook
and see it take netbooks to new heights.
3D Translucent Cube Desktop
---------------------------
The latest EEE1000 has fast enough graphics for translucent
3D desktops. An easy way to do all this with Ubuntu is:
Install Ubuntu on EEE (compiz itself
appears to be installed by default in the default install),
then install compiz settings manager using Synaptic
which allows compiz to be fully 'exercised'.
And then do the following to get the 3D cube desktop
working...
Go to General > Display Settings > Lighting and turned it off
Enable Desktop Cube and then Desktop Cube > Transparent Cube and set the
two opacity settings to 30%
then Desktop Cube > Skydome and check the skydome check mark
Enable Rotate Cube
Enable Enhanced Zoom Desktop
Right click the virtual workspaces panel and increase the number
of colums to 16.
And hey presto - 100% 3D translucent desktop with 16 screens!!!!!!!!!!
[Some shortcuts for the 3D screen
ctrl + alt + left or right arrow to spin cube
ctrl + alt + down arrow and then left or right arrow for a ring switcher
super + E for yet another switcher
super + mouse wheel scroll to zoom in and out of the 3D desktop.
]
You can run many applications simultaneously on netbook like a
real Linux desktop. You can open many browser tabs, run Open Office, video,
and developer stuff like MySQL server, Apache, PHP, Gambas, sqlite3
ALL SIMULTANEOUSLY while on a train for example, and rotate the
cube to switch between tasks instantly. Gone are the days when netbooks
were mis-represented as toys. They are fully functional Linux
Desktops on the move. Try it! It works!
Reducing Font Sizes And Turning ON Sub Pixel Rendering
------------------------------------------------------
The EEE can be astonishingly good to look at once the
font size is reduced to about 8 and sub pixel rendering
is turned ON. It is still absolutely
readable and everything appeared like a 'full screen' miniature
desktop equivalent of a big desktop PC.
System > Appearance > Fonts get to the font settings
in Ubuntu. On software like firefox and some other applications,
need to also to set local use of fonts ( Edit > Preferences > Content
will have font settings for firefox that also need to be changed).
VirtualBox
----------
Yes! VirtualBox can run on Ubutu set up with 3D translucent desktop.
http://www.virtualbox.org
Install virtual box and then install programs like windopws XP and run
it pretty much at it would run on a normal netbook. Its hard to tell
if the netbook is running Linux or the WINDUMMY OSen when the software
is run full screen becaue the speed and responsiveness is about
the same between a real windummy OSen install and a virtual box
virtual machine running it all in Linux.
Speeding up netbook to near Desktop speed
-----------------------------------------
With the EEE, you can speed up the netbook into a desktop PC able to handle
giant applications. Just fit USB 7200 RPM external pocket drive. Install
and boot Linux from the external drive. Data transfer rate is about 28
Megabytes per second so video and other stuff work at near desktop speeds.
Obviously it uses up a lot more energy and 2 USB sockets and so
drains battery very fast. Need to be plugged into a charger to
get best performance. You don't want to fit the 7200RPM drive
inside the netbook - it will heat up a lot. If you want 7 to 8 hours of
battery life from your netbooks you need to limit yourself to slowish SSDs
for now. As the pocket drives cost only 40 pounds, another advantage
is that you can have several to switch between tasks.
If netbooks start shipping with e-Sata, then that would be even better
option to get as the e-Sata and 7200 RPM pocket drives
desktop drive are common and cheap.

I have often read your claim that it is better... but I have *never* seen
you support it, a least in terms of usability. And, frankly, it is clear
you cannot. You simply have no evidence that Compiz adds *any* usability to
a computer.
This is not to say it does not - but you are ignorant of any area where it
does. That much is very, very clear.

Aero previews are pretty cool. Aero snap can be. Aero transparent borders

Well, when changing virtual desktops I like to see that i'm changing
desktops and not have it happen so fast that I wonder for a second or
two if i've changed to the right place. I guess you could say I feel
more in control over the action i'm performing when I can see what is
happening. With compiz off, the change is abrupt and I pause for a
moment or so while I figure out if what I just did is what I wanted to
do. At least while i'm rotating the desktop cube (scroll-wheel button,
mouse left/right) I have a moment to think about what i'm going to do on
that other desktop.
I also tend to have several terminals open or need to read something
on one window while I type it into another. With compiz I can adjust the
transparency of the top window so that I can read the covered window
rather than minimize/copy/maximize/paste.

Previews and Snap (to some degree) are in compiz already. I found
Previews to be to small to really be able to see what's happing (and I
can read the text of the window title bar) so I don't use them. As far
as Previewing a full size window - well that's what I use virtual
desktops for. So while an Aero user is hovering and previewing, i'm
rotating and using.
Using compiz is like customizing your car. You can leave it stock, or
make it look and feel the way you want it.

I agree - having a visual indicator of virtual desktop changes is a good
thing. No argument here. Just a shame 7 is unable to come up with stuff
like this. From a past post of mine:
Forget the whole list and not digging it up now, but being
able to see where windows go, visualizing virtual desktops
better, and seeing windows come and go from the "front" all
can have benefits.

Dual real desktops seems like the better option there... but, sure.

Here's some English written by *you*, Snit, showing you "agree about
Compiz" with a poster who wrote the following about it:
"Compiz is a lot of eye-candy and special effects with no purpose
other than glitz. OSS on the other hand uses visual effects more
sparingly but there's a purpose to them. Example - wobbly windows are
totally useless."
You replied to the poster with:
"I agree about Compiz... can you give some examples of innovative or
creative ways OSS uses visual effects "with a purpose to them"?"
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.linux.advocacy/msg/e216ca1ba8b9edcf?hl=en&dmode=source
Hint: That was you, Snit... agreeing that Compiz has "no purpose other
than glitz".
My prediction: Snit will pretend that this quote doesn't show what it
*obviously* shows for all sane, honest and honorable readers who can
"actually" comprehend "English". As a bonus... his friend "Joel"
might even chime in and completely deny the quotes existence
altogether by also claiming it doesn't show what it *obviously* shows.
Between the two of them they don't have a creative bone in their
bodies.
Steve Carroll
Interesting... because you previously agreed with a poster who wrote:
"Compiz is a lot of eye-candy and special effects with no purpose
other than glitz. OSS on the other hand uses visual effects more
sparingly but there's a purpose to them. Example - wobbly windows are
totally useless."

creative ways OSS uses visual effects "with a purpose to them"?" -
Snit
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.linux.advocacy/msg/e216ca1ba8b9edcf?hl=en&dmode=source
In case you missed it... that was *you*, Snit... agreeing that Compiz
has "no purpose other than glitz".
But another issue arises based on what you've previously stated which
prompts the question: Are you talking about 7 in your reply to Norman
because you stick to content over personality like you have previously
stated on numerous occasions? Notably, Norman's post that you replied
to here did *not* mention the poster named "7" in the "content" of his
post. This means you lied when you previously wrote:
"I am a generous person and I do not focus on personalities - I focus
on the content of your posts. Post intelligently and I shall happily
let bygones be bygones. " - Snit
Not only are you seen here not letting bygones be bygones, you are
focusing on a personality (7) who Norman never mentioned in his post.
My prediction: You will run from your contradiction (lie) here and
your friend "Joel" might even chime in to deny that you have written
what you have *obviously* written.

Yes, you are right... and that can really add to the customization in
that you can assign backgrounds pertaining to the type of work you are
doing on that virtual desktop. Just an idea, I haven't taken it that far.
Snit
I use two. OS X, my main OS, uses simply sliding between virtual desktops -
the cube is used for switching users. I also have the cube effect for going
into full screen Windows when I do that... but that really is not a
usability bonus.

I sometimes use the Expos� effect for much the same thing on OS X - though
it shows a thumbnail of each virtual desktop, not a cube. Same idea though.
How does the cube handle more than six desktops?

Since I use a tiling WM I find it hard to believe that bg setting adds
to your productivity in any way whatsoever. e.g each workspace I use has
a certain hot key. Each has its own layout. Xmobar tells me which one I
am on should I "forget". Each WS has one of a set of predefined layouts
available for it which can be triggered by hot keys. Basically I never
see the background any more unless I feel like applying transparency
which I dont because its generally useless.

As has been said, it is helpful to some people to have different
backgrounds on different workspaces, and possibly for different reasons.
For Norman, it might be a visual indicator that the workspace has
changed. For me, the background tells which workspace I am working in.

It may generally useless to you. From the numerous screenshots I have
seen, it seems many people enjoy working with transparent windows. And
happy people tend to be more productive.

The cube in fact only needs 2 virtual desktops to 'operate as normal':
1 -> nothing happens (nothing to do)
2 -> screen is made of a front and back (like a playing card)
3 -> triangle
4 -> cube
5+ -> starts taking on a cylindrical shape
...up to a max of 16 (at least on my system changing with the standard
preferences.

Very true. But for me backgrounds would be wasted since I like my
monitor to show the app(s) I am using - not decoration.

Good for you to realize that. Keep in mind greater consistency has been

I won't argue with that. But I dont need transparent Windows to be
happy. The first time I played with it I thought "wow" but when the
novelty wore off I turned it all off as it added nothing in terms of
efficiency.

Keep in mind, Rick has been repeatedly told (and had supported) that
consistency leads to greater enjoyment. This is not just personal opinion:
studies back this up.
Suddenly Rick has seen the light:
And happy people tend to be more productive.
Which is not to say that is the only reason consistency leads to greater
productivity... far, far from it.

At 4 p.m. on Feb. 1 - at least... that's what you *claimed* (of
course, google proves you lied about that... what a shock - LOL!)
"Steve, I just got a job in Vegas confirmed. My customer (a local non-

for a few days, and will be flying out Feb. 1st from Gate C. I will
be there about 4:00 PM local time" - Snit
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/b4c7cfdcd84421c2?hl=en&dmode=source
Unfortunately, for you, Google shows that, despite your efforts to
monkey with the clock on your posts from Feb.1 (by the way, how do you
explain how you managed to post *so* many posts on Feb. 1 and have
them come out saying 8:06 p.m. - too bad for the *real* time stamping
in the headers, eh? - LOL!) you were posting to usenet at that time.

Yeah... how utterly unreasonable of me to ask a known liar for proof
that he'd be where he said he was "already" going (a place he *didn't*
go because he LIED) when it would mean I'd otherwise be going there in
the blind on only his say so. I keep telling you, Snit... people just
aren't as stupid as you need them to be. LOL!

> Go figure.
I "figure" you won't get around to asking Snit why he never posted any
sort of verification that he was even going to be where he *claimed*
(falsely) he was "already" going to be before he *pretended* to be
willing to meet with me. If you ever grow some balls and get around
to it... then you can also ask Snit why he *never* showed up to
where he said he was "already" going to be on the day and time that he
said he'd be there.
My prediction: You will do neither... and Snit will have what his
delusional mind considers to be a perfectly good reason for not having
shown up to where he told me he was going to be at the time he said
he'd be there.
Fact: It was the well know liar named Snit who refused to prove he was
going where he said he was "already" going to be
Fact: Snit said it would be fun to take pictures (minus me) so he
could post them and make fun of my not showing up.
Fact: Snit never produced any pictures because... he *wasn't* where he
said he be when he said he be there.
Fact: When I made the reasonable suggestion that Snit prove he was
going to be where he claimed he was "already" going to be, he whined
with the following ridiculous, turn the table, attempt:
"E-mail you proof! LOL. What, now you want a copy of my ticket or
something. LOL! You are such a back peddling little weasel. If you
want to meet me, let me know - I would be happy to meet you there." -
Snit
Get that? The guy who said he'd be "happy" to meet me but wouldn't
provide *any* proof he'd even be at the meeting site that *he* chose
called *me* a weasel. LOL! So... well known liar Snit claimed he would
be "happy" to meet me... he just didn't want to provide any proof he
wasn't sending me on a wild goose chase... a thing to be expected from
a cowardly, back peddling, little weasel like Snit;)
The poster ed also asked Snit to provide proof:
"post up the ticket; why not? "
And Snit replied:
"What ticket? "
And ed came back with:
"the ticket you were referring to when you said " now you want a copy
of my ticket or something". or did you make it up and forget about it
already?"
Snit to ed:
"Read the thread: there is no ticket."
(Obvious question... that Snit didn't think of: Why did Snit ask if I
wanted a copy of his ticket if there *was* no ticket? Oops! LOL!)
ed, pointing out another obvious fact that didn't occur to Snit when
he began this charade:
"if you're flying, there is a ticket, even if you get an e-ticket- i
flew over 200k miles last year, i should know! =) even if you didn't
make the arrangements yourself, you should have a record locator or
confimation number of some sort on the itinerary they send you."
Snit, as expected:
"I have received no paperwork or e-mail, though I do have a
confirmation number. I have no desire to share that with you."
(Snit is asking the reader to believe that he "received no paperwork
or e-mail" that provided him with his "confirmation number". Snit
claimed: "My customer will be flying me out". I guess Snit got his
entire itinerary over the phone from his "customer" or the ariline...
or maybe it was delivered by carrier pigeon. LOL!)
ed, pointing out something else that is obvious to all sane, honest
and honorable individuals:
"why, what's someone going to do with a confirmation number? if
you're serious, why do have a problem actually proving you're going to
be there?"
Snit astounding and ridiculous answer:
"Because it is a confirmation number - a number that confirms it is
me... why not share your credit card numbers and social security
number to prove you are you."
And here Snit's bogus charade is exposed for the sham that it is. Of
course the "confirmation number" is "a number that confirms it is"
Snit... that's the whole point... to confirm that Snit *was* going to
be where he *said* he was "already" going to be when he said he'd be
there. As anyone can clearly see, Snit wanted no part of that. LOL!

2:18 PM:
Steve is shocked... absolutely shocked!... that after he said he was
chickening out of meeting me I did not go to the scheduled spot nor tell him
of my plans on the date and time we agreed to meet.
And I turned other offers to meet people down. How dare I!
Really... why does Steve need a small novel to explain his shock over
this... other than to obfuscate the fact that he told me that all I had to
do was give him a time and place and he would meet me... and he backed down.
So he backed down. Oh well. He is a coward in many, many ways - not like
his backing down from his own request was a shock to anyone.

... pointed out that Snit ran away while trying to pretend he would
meet with me. Unfortunately, for Snit, two other posters saw and
commented on Snit's cowardice. We have the poster ed, who I just
pointed to above... and here is more with ed in another thread:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/d1e5d524ab71b7d8?dmode=source
And from the same thread a poster named John Q Public wrote to Snit:
"You went on and on about your meeting with Steve. You talked about
how you were going to embarrass him when he didn't show up. And yet,
it was all a load of crap.
I can fully understand why you might want to avoid meeting people. I
don't understand why you went on and on about meeting him, when you
did not intend to ever do it. All you needed to say was that you
would not be meeting him. Instead, you chose the route of crap. It
was not the first time you sprayed crap and it will not be the last on
time. But it is hardly meaningless or superficial."
And, of course, we have Snit's admission (from the same thread) which
proves John, ed and myself were correct about Snit all along:
"While I find it entertaining and sometimes even mentally stimulating
to argue with people who are playing the role of bullies in here, I do
not have any desire to meet anyone face-to-face."
Snit not only had no "desire"... he never had any intention of meeting
with me or anyone else "face-to face".
The following quote by Snit tells the real story:
"I have had this for the last couple of years... Still struggling to
get over it. I can not have my BP [blood pressure] taken ANYWHERE
without bringing on an attack; doc's office, stores with machines, or
even my own cuff that I have now bought".
Stupid as he is... even Snit knows I'm a *lot* bigger than a blood
pressure cuff;)

Oh! Oh! Show this "proof". Man, will it be humiliating for me.
Wait.
You have no proof? You were just lying! Ah, you are the one who is

How is it "running" to all but beg you to actually *try* to back up your
dishonest cowardly little accusations you would be messing yourself to
support *IF YOU COULD*.
You are a liar. You are simply begging for attention and doing all you can
to pander to your sick little clique because you have no sense of self
worth. If I was wrong, even a little, you would respond to this by showing
this alleged "proof".
But you will run. And you will whine I am running when I am sitting right
here mocking your dishonest little games and making it clear to everyone how
pathetic you are. Here you are: if you had one ounce of confidence in your
accusations you would respond with quotes and links... but you will not.
Maybe you will respond by telling me, again, how the tilde in a path means
"the hard drive only". LOL! That was likely your best humiliating bit, and
it has been a while. Come on, try to top your BS!

I have put him in a position where it is well past time he put up or shut
up. And he is too tied to his idiotic clique to do either - he will insist
on making it even more clear (as if it is not crystal clear now) just what
an amazingly loser he is.

Unlikely - he has been around for too long and HPT posts reams of off-topic,
meaningless quotes... Tim cannot even manage that!

Much as your constant repetition could send an acid tab to sleep, I have

HPT's Mac using inbred brother/son : as thick as two short planks and
totally unable to keep his story straight so just makes things up and

1- Adam Kesher: "Steve, IIRC Sandman's website has a member area and a
login. If you forget your password, you can ask it to e-mail it to you,
and a bot will send an e-mail. *That* is the e-mail Snit got from
Sandman's website, and yes he's that fucked in the head and starved for

don't get sucked into his little circus. The e-mail, in this particular

The support has been offered many times snit. The FACT that you snip it away in
your replies, trying to pretend it was never there isn't my problem.

yet it is snit that has been proven to have used multiple socks, even admitting
to several. It is you that claimed Steve Carroll and Steve Carroll's Dog both
'posted from the same IP address' only to later admit you LIED because Steve
Carroll's Dog posted from an host that doesn't include and IP address in their
header (hint to snit - just like YOU do!).

May be you ought to take Hadron's suggestion and killfile me, seeing
that no matter what I reply, you keep your boring repetitious nonsense.
But then you wouldn't be receiving the attention that you crave for.
After all being the egoist you are, since you crave for your exact words
to be quoted, you wrote this:
George Graves: "Snit has a problem with the difference between his
opinion and fact. He seems to think that one equals the other. I have a
unique position to be able to recognize this pattern, as I tend to do it
myself although, I must mention that He is more blatant about it than I
am."
Ed: "snit's a lot more annoying than you though, because he tends to
repeat himself over and over, AND he lies about what others are claiming."
Snit: "Not only do I lie about what others are claiming, I show evidence
from the records. That does tend to annoy you. As far as repeating, I
respond to the same arguments over and over again. Should I just let
these alone? Perhaps, but if I did, you (or others) would likely claim
it was me running from an argument. Places me in a no-win situation. I
do, however, to simplify things for everyone, write responses that apply
to these repeated arguments, and post that."

They're chirping over here, too:
Bob B to Snit:
"But to sum up your claim, basically you think that the two most
recent presidents, plus all the major party candidates for president,
plus most members of congress are war criminals."
Snit:
"No - just the ones who are actively committing war crimes, if not in
a strictly legal sense, in a moral one."
Bob B:
"So you only care about war crimes while they are happening, but not
those of the recent past? So if Bush loses the election next year, you
will just forget about his "crimes"?"
Snit:
"Never hinted, suggested, stated, or implied that this was the case."
Bob B:
"Yes you did - look above, I asked why you focus on Bush and ignore
others, and you said its because he is currently committing the
crimes. When he is out of office, he won't be committing any "crimes",
so by your own admission you won't be so interested."
Snit (trying to pretend reality isn't what it is):
"Never hinted, suggested, stated, or implied that this was the case."
Bob B:
"Huh? Do you even read what anyone else says, or do you just cut &
paste the same "answer" no matter what the reply?"
More shown here:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.mac.advocacy/msg/0ec5eeaa8ed401a8?dmode=source
Funny stuff which makes it obvious that Snit is not only ignoring what
other people write, he ignores what he writes (as several people have
pointed out many times;)
And, as several people found out, if you point out Snit's *obvious*
bias he claims you are "defending" the person he's biased against.
LOL!

I still wish I could liberate my copy of Leopard from my mini and run
it on one of my bigger machines. Cheap Macs make OK HTPC boxes but they
are a bit mediocre as desktop machines.
I too have a $600 quad core machine. I would need to spend an extra
$1800 to get an Apple machine like it.
$1800 pays for a lot of Windows licenses.

Here's what to do. Buy the cheap Mini for $599 (the difference in processor
speed between the three models is trivial, not worth even thinking about).
Purchase the 1/2 TB 7200 RPM drive kit from Other World Computer for $132.
Then load it up with at least 4 Gigs of RAM from the same source ($112). So,
for about $850 you have a screaming fast lil' Mini with lots of storage which
makes an excellent OSX desktop computer.

I've already done the putty knife routine and am not really interested
in doing that again. I'd rather buy a machine meant to be modified if I am
going to alter it.

No not really.
It will still be the sluggish thing that I started out with and I will
still be comparing it to a machine with faster cores and more of them.
Creating extra heating issues for a cramped case won't really change that
fact.
My franken-PCs have room for full size optical drives, will accomodate
6 or more full size drives each and have expansion slots. So if I wanted to
get rediculous I could accomodate an additional 5 or more drives.
I could also move up to an nv3x0 if I wanted too.
Minis used to be nifty little HTPC boxes before the IONs came out.
