An alternative approach is to use the original casing for the modem and route the ribbon cable through the gaps. Best option might be to route it to the back (needs a slightly longer cable) and build a separate case for the Sammy. Alternatively the Sammy could be placed under the Dreamcast by raising it (some kind of casing, risers, etc).
Anybody got any other ideas?
Very nice !
Thanks !

For buying more than one the shipping is also multiplied. Is there no break for ordering multiple?

Try this on ebay :
"Bundle delivery costs on eBay
If a member purchases multiple items from you and isn't already receiving a discount on shipping, they can select Request Seller Total from their cart. You can then send him an invoice with the new group charges."
