Best Case for under $125?

What's the best case there is for Under $125?
I was thinking about the Antec 900, but I want CF's opinion!

EDIT: Just for clarification, is the Antec 900 Toolless?
I didn't see anything about it on Newegg...

Are you looking at a certain case size? You mentioned the 900, do you want relatively that size?

You can't buy it on Newegg, but I have the CM Stacker 810, full tower steel case:

I love it. It's a bit heavy, but I added better casters on it, and haul it around to LANs.

Not tool less but I've never really seen a good tool less system, they all seem to be cheap plastic.

I got the Antec 900 Two yesterday and I love it. Even though its similar to the first 900 I love that its black on the inside.

I have this case, and it is THE BEST.

I decided to go for the Nine Hundered, because of not being able to get the CoolerMaster on Newegg and the other two being out of my price range (after shipping, at least), and the 900 outperforms the Thermaltake anyway, on the benchmarks I've seen.
