Thanks for the correction, it's nice to be loved! ;-)

I ended up ordering this case from Dealsonic:

I liked it because it is aluminum instead of plastic, is black to match my 3500, and USB/Firewire combo with the Prolific chipset. It should arrive on Monday or Tuesday, along with some Taiyo Yuden DVD+R's that I can hopefully burn at 16X with my new enclosure! I'll keep you guys posted.

Like you I am also waiting for the Seagate 100GB 7200RPM Laptop drive. Right now I"m using an 80GB 4200RPM Fujitsu. HDTach shows an average read rate of 25Mbytes/sec, so I think it will be fast enough to feed the 3500 at 16x(22Mbytes/sec) along with the fact burns are normally buffered in system memory (RAM) as well.
