Plastic biscuit boxes are good for second processors, viz:

Cheese wedge in cheese biscuits box, oh, the irony of it...

Best wishes,

I trawled through the maplin on-line catalogue the other day for 7x5 
plastic box to stick my bare board 6502 2P in (actually for two, as I 
got Sprow's ARM 2P the other day too :-) ) and they only had *one* 
product of that size. (lots smaller.) and my local shop didn't have 
any in.  Nor did any other shop in the entire North West.

Lots of disco lights though.

I ended up having a brainwave and used a 6-way DVD case with the 
inner "pages" taken out - it was exactly the right size!
