Do you have a technical question that doesn't really fit a specific console? Want some general info on electronics, hacking, making cookies, etc? Here's the place to ask! Go nuts.
If you do have ceiling lights, you can tip the case on its side so that the light shines in better. Or if you're obsessed with it being upright to work on it, you can use a shiny piece of metal (such as the door of the case) to reflect light into the case.
