[Novalug] Raspberry PI - order nightmare..

[Miles D. Oliver]

My wife the packrat couldn't say no to the cigar smokers in her office who
asked her if she wanted the wooden cigar boxes. Something about 'quilters'
who save everything and store pieces of fabric in them for various reasons.

There is a very large assortment of good looking, some ornately crafted
cigar boxes in my basement to choose from.  I have one slated for replacing
her desktop with a Mini-ITX system in one of those boxes very soon.

All of these are going to be too large for the 'PI'.  Having the case made
by a 3D printer for it is also very appealing to me as part of the project.
