I agree with Hairy_Lee, lowcar100 that is one sweet case!

heh. You all have nicer cases than I do. My sig machine is nonfunctional at the moment so I'm using an HP Brio PC (celeron 433 sucks!). The case is okay and functional but only has mounting space for a mATX P/S, even though it's spacious enough to have a full ATX one. Has a removable MB tray after you remove cards, and it's a pretty strong case if not a brick sh1thouse. Way stronger than my last build in which I used a cheap generic case.

Another machine I have in the home-office is a Celeron 733 with a generic, old ATX case. Nice case with room for 2x 80mm fans, but narrow. I suspect it's based off an AT case design. Very strong though.

Still another machine is a HP Pavilion 4455 with a very small mATX case (10" x 10" x 7"). Airflow and cable management suck but the case is cute and has a removable MB tray.

My server, a Dell Poweredge 4100/200, has a huge double-wide with dual 500w redundant P/S's. Proprietary form factor (BTX-like) with 4 loud 120mm fans. Great looking but unmoddable because it is a brick sh1thouse.
