I didn't think it wise to move it around with a pot mounted. But if you oriented the mobo to be offset from the monitor i don't see why it wouldn't work.

True, and I think things just got a lot easier. I stole a monitor from my fiancee's moms house to leave at my office rofl! so it just needs to be a fairly standard bench station now :X sorry men! That means suitcase should be perfect.

Add wart removal to your Optricians business and make LN2 a write off

On a serious note, rig in a suitcase is something I have wanted to do for a long time but that is a bit out of my league.

I even have an old style portable PC in the attic where the front is a keyboard that doubles as a IO cover I considered modding.

A pelican case portable bench station would be schweet. You can mount the monitor to one half and board and stuff on the other. Something like that.

I've really been thinking of how to do something like this also, as I am headed out to Minnesota for a couple months to work but I'm flying.

I'm so not gonna be benching. It's just way too much stuff to be lugging 1100 miles. I'm going to have so much free time to waste out there too.
