Open cases/testbeds anyone?

So does anyone test their components in the open air? If so how do you support components and where do you put everything?

Been using antec Skeleton for over a year now, really pleased with it, People will bang on about dust being a problem, but it isn't.

It's really easy to work with and good fun to mod also.

I would have thought about getting the skeleton, but don't like the fact that the fan gets in the way of coolers

You don't really need the big coolers, but if you want one then it's a simple job to mod the back end of the cowling.

I use the removable motherboard tray from my case when testing, but not often for more than a week at a time. Neatly solves the problem of supporting the cards, psu and hard drive sit somewhere nearby.
