Will the G4 top housing case fit the Intel minis?

My friend has an intel mac and his case is just scratched up big time. Both on the top and sides. Looks really ugly. I found him a case from a G4 mini for dirt cheap and was wondering if it would fit his intel mini. I know the intel's have an infrared sensor and I told him that the G4 replacement case would cover it and that the remote might not work- but he's okay with that since he says he's never used the remote.
So does anyone know any issues that would make it incompatible? The only thing I could see in pics on the internet is that it kind of looks like the cd-rom slot is slightly more to the left ( http://media.arstechnica.com/reviews/hardware/macmini.media/minifront.jpg ). Is this true? Because I think that would be a huge issue.
Thanks in advance!

The ports on the rear are in different places in the G4 and Intel Minis.
For starters, the Intel has 4 USB ports and a microphone jack, while the G4 Mini has 2 USB and no microphone jack.
I don't think this project is a good idea.

    will an iPod Classic 80gb case fit the 160gb Ipod

    The 5th Gen 80GB case would be too loose for the slim 160GB iPod Classic, but maybe you can put in ugly styrofoam fillers. But the 6th Gen 80GB is the same thickness as all 160GB model. So depends on which 80GB model casing you are refering to.
    Dimensions
    5th Gen 80GB = 4.1 x 2.4 x 0.43*
    6th Gen 80GB/160GB  = 4.1 x 2.4 x 0.41*
    Have a nice day!

  • Do the air/pro herschel cases fit the macbook pro with the cd drive?

    My boyfriend owns the macbook pro with the cd drive. I am trying to purchase him a herschel case (they are sold in the accessory section in the apple store, online as well as in store)
    My only concern is that I know the air and the new pro are thinner, more sleek then the macbook pro with the cd drive and I'm just curious to know if the herschel cases that say "fits air/pro 13inch" actually fit the macbook with the cd drive.
    Any answers would be very much so appreciated!
    Thank you.

    yes their a difference.  The retna model is slimmer and doesnt have an optical drive.

  • Will the iPhone 5 cases fit the iPod Touch 5?

    Will an iPhone 5 case fit the iPod Touch 5?

    Yes, Actually it fit really well and the dimension difference is technical not physical so the iPhone case hugs the iPod comfortably and there is not rattle or movement whatsoever.
    I " don't think so" like others.. I've done this and own one!

    Will the standard iPad case fit the the iPad Air or is there a specific type case for the iPad Air?

    The air is different dimensions from other iPads, so look for cases made specifically for it. I know that Targus has some, so does Zagg and i'm sure other manufacturers do as well.

  • IPhone 3G case fits the 2G?

    Hey guys.
    I recently dropped my iPhone 2G, and got it scratched. In order to prevent this, I decided I wanted to buy a new iPhone case. But I realized that all the good cases are pretty much only for the 3G. So I went looking and found this theme I really really really like called the SGP Vintage Brown edition (http://www.sgpstore.com/productinfo.php/productsid/796). It's a really awesome case, except its for the iPhone 3G. Does this case fit the 2G? I was just wondering if anyone has had this case and knows if its a really tight fit, or if anyone else had already used it with the 2G. There are also other colors so if you had it in another color could you tell me too? I really want this case, so if anyone knows if it fits please tell me. Thanks in advance guys!

    I highly doubt it will since it looks like a hardcase with the material coating it. Your only bet to finding a case that will work is finding a soft gel case, but I can't even guarantee that it will fit your 2g if it wasn't specifically made for it.

  • Do the iPad 2 Cases fit the Retina iPad?

    Would the snap on and silicone cases fit the Retina Display iPad

    Yours does - but a lot more (particularly hard cases) don't.
    To the OP: if you have a hard case, be extra caotious when applying  an iPad 2 hard case. You may end up having to use a knife to get the case off. If, after applying two corners, you see it won't fit, do NOT try to fit the third corner!

  • Does iphone 5 cases fit the 5s

    Does iphone 5 cases fit the new iphone 5s

    It works great. I put my iPhone 5 version Lifeproof fre case on my new 5S and everything lines up. The camera hole lines up and the flash hole is just barely big enough for the new dual flash. I took a flashlight to the front of the 5S and all the sensors on the front of the device by the front camera are in the same place as the 5. I took some test pictures and they are fine, no vignetting. No fingerprint sensor functionality but I assume that is what Lifeproof is working on with the 5S case.

  • Can the Charge with a case fit in the Samsung media dock? or do I have to take the case off?

    can the Charge with a case fit in the Samsung media dock? or do I have to take the case off?
    thanks!

    Dear SandraW,
    Of course, there are may cases out there for the Charge but I would have to say generally, no. I have the desk dock and it looks like the Charge fits very snugly into the dock, and that the seat molded into the dock for the phone is an exact match for the side profile of the Charge.
    I have the shell/holster case for the Charge that is standard VZW accessory, and having the Charge in the shell portion of the case would prevent it from docking.
    I do have a Skin-It skin on the back of the phone, and this does NOT prevent docking.
