Cases That Can House Multiple Motherboards?

full-case asks: "Due to some interesting politics at the ISP where I work, I can run two machines in the colocation room for free if and only if they both occupy the same case. As it turns out, I have two (standard ATX-form-factor) motherboards with associated sundry that would really like to be colocated, and I know I've heard of cases that will accept multiple motherboards, but I can't for the life of me find one that will take the right size. The only ones that I can find are either in the $6k price range, or this sort of thing, which requires special ultra-tiny motherboards. I figure I would be served better by having a 4U case divided internally to mount two motherboards; both machines will fit nicely into a 2U case separately...but does such a beast exist, or can it be (cheaply) assembled from parts?"

can it be (cheaply) assembled from parts?

Yes. All you need are two of those 2U cases and a blowtorch. Be sure to remove your two motherboards first. :)

I have this case with two dual Xeons in it. With the SCA backplane it was like $650, but I think the case without that feature is much less.
