New case needed?

So with college coming up in a year and the need to move my computer around looms closer I've been thinking. I don't want to lug my P180 around everywhere I go, I need a smaller/more portable case.


Can anyone suggest a quality semi-compact case? It doesn't have to be super light, it just can't be gigantic (like the P180). I also cannot go microATX as i do not want to buy a new motherboard.
 
The lanbox is matx motherboard only, I absolutely need an atx case.

@StrangleHold: I'll look into that case.

Also, to everyone, how does the Antec Sonata look? It's sure a lot ligher than the P180 and also smaller.

I own it. :D
Let me tell you this is one awesome case.
I wouldn't exactly say it's small...at least by my standers.
But, this case is what you are getting! :cool:
This case is so quiet...!
After i finished building my computer i plugged in the power cord (only) just to see if it's going to run ok. I didn't plug in my monitor (yet) and i thought the power supply was dead! I plugged in my monitor just for the hell of it and it was running perrfectly! It is so quiet you won't notice it running.
I highly recommend this case! :)

Hmm yeah, I wanted a quiet case (though the Sonata III is still not on the same calibre as the p180). And as for the size, it's a full 5 inches shorter than my case :).

I still can't decide whether to get this or go all out and switch my mobo to matx and pick up the Silverstone SG03.
