Unusual Cases

Recently a friend showed me a picture of c modded case made out of an old 8-track player. It looked really cool.
Looking inside my plain Jane case I see plenty of unused space. What size box would it take to fit an ATX or mini ATX motherboard and PSU?

Wasn't that a mini-ITX computer?
