    I am planning on adding 8 Blue SMD LEDs to the bottom of my AA1. The grill under the speakers will hopefully let enough of the light through to notice that they are there. I ordered the SMD's yesterday from Hong Kong (mistake) which will take 4ever to get here. Does anyone know a good place to solder them to in a parallel circuit? I got the IC chip to do the sound reactive part....Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    unused usb ports on the back of the motherboard. That way you can turn it on or off if you like and it provides enough power aswell.

    Why not try to put some leds under the keyboard keys to illuminate the keyboard area. Butting the LEDs on the bottom, well you're not going to see them since they are hidding down there.
