ok, ok, i wasn't going to say anything, but since this message board seems to have the nicest, most tolerant posts i've ever seen regarding my status as a 'geek pornstar', i'll venture out of the shadows for a second to answer the mystery of the 'upside-down, angled floppy drive'. the clear case was sent to me as a gift from steve at
http://hypothermia.gamershardware.com along with a mobo, chip, and RAM (not installed). the case was a bit of a mystery to me, because it was literally just an empty shell - no drive racks, no power button, no racks for power, nothin'. there was no manual, so i just took my best guess as to how to install everything. after a little trial and error, i got it all working to my satisfaction except for the damn floppy. i could not get the damn racks to line up with the pre-drilled case holes no way, no how, until i finally just flipped the thing upside down and at an angle as you saw. i probably just made some stupid newbie error, but it works, so i'll leave it for now. as a geek do-it-yerselfer from day one, my motto has always been "if you can't get it to work the proper way, just get it to work, period." so there you have it!
