I tried to do the same thing about a year ago. The only conclusion i came to
was either creating a new back plate or cutting a large hole in the back of
the case.

Gave up in the end, tried to sell the case on ebay to no avail, lol. If you
know how to weld you could possibly do it, other wise get a new case, their
pretty resonable nowadays
hope that helped

Newegg.com sells atx cases with no power supply for 10 bucks. With one
for 30. As for your web question, just get something called a broadband
router (assuming you have broadband).

No; they are incompatible designs.

You use a 4-port router.

1--Not very easy.  The ports on the back do not match and the power supply
is differant.

2 HOw are you connected to the internet ?  If cable or dsl then plug a
router between the modem and the two computers.
