Well... it's gonna be a couple weeks on the fans, so I'll post pics of what I got.
The power supply I ordered was small enough to fit, but was going to require a lot of modification to the case the meet up with the openings in the rear (fan and power cord). There also wasn't any way to mount the new power supply to the case (except maybe 2 sided tape or something. So I came up with a new scheme. I put the new power supply inside the old power supply's case. Took a couple hours (I'm not real handy with a soldering iron... lol), but I managed to migrate everything into the old case. Now it's all in, and I'm typing to you on my Gateway currently.
Here's pics...
A view of the SSD installed in the DVD drive slot.
