hara is right: it's the MSI K7D Master-L (which means it's got network built in). I considered the Iwill, but there's no way it would have fit in the case, a Lian-Li PC-12.
The specs are a bit fluid at the moment, as I'm buying the electronics when I really need them. No sense getting certain components now when I won't be installing them until a month or two later, and the price has come down. Still, the idea is:
Athlon MP --fastest money can buy at the time, I'm aiming for a set of 2600;
2 x WD 1200JB (120G, 8Mb cache);
2 x CD-RW/DVD;
1 floppy (duh);
1 3.5" bay 6 multi-media card reader;
1 gig memory
Radeon 9800
5" colour LCD screen in floppy bay, running Glint.

Watercooling:
- The blocks you see are Paul Vodrazka's home-made blocks (There are some threads on this forum discussing them);
- Probably a Danger Den block for the Radeon (unless D-Tek comes up with something better);
- Aquatube res;
- Johnson CM30P7-1 pump (12V, continuous rated, about 360 GPH; there are some threads here discussing that one also);
- BIX chrome edition rad;
- home-made shroud;
- Aluminium 120mm Panaflo fan. eBay occasionally still has these discontinued models.
General case cooling is by four Thermaltake smart fans. There's going to be a Zalman passive NB cooler, and silver rounded cables of course.
Puzzdre: The grilles you see are easy to make, really: You get the standard Thermaltake grille that comes with the fan:
And mount one of these esoteric Hi-Fi anti-vibration feet on them. They are called "Tenderfeet" and you get three for about $10,--. They are aluminium and come in silver and black, and two sizes (pointy and flat. these are the flat ones):
Superglue the foot on the grille. Use "gel" superglue-- less runny. Et voila!
Bit of a cheat, I suppose, but I didn't have access to a lathe. Looks trick though, and it's cheaper than buying custom grilles.
