This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Industrial design (looks, functional), sturdy construction, microATX or ATX, easy access. Front-panel ports for audio, USB, Firewire.
Cons: MOBO standoffs had 3 styles, had to figure out which hardware worked with each.
Other Thoughts: Reasonably priced, something-different case; Should impress your friends. Chose CPU vent side-panel over window.

Outstanding Case in everyway but 1

Comments: I've had this case now for a couple of months, and I can honestly say this is the best case I have ever had. The design is superb. Just a few words of advice:

(1) Don't even think about using the top two bays for your CD or DVD burners. The trap-door mechanism was a terrible idea, and badly implemented also. If you try using it, you will either break your DVD caddy, or your will break the trap door. This isn't really much of an issue, just drop down to the third bay.

(2) This unit comes 2 120mm slots, but only one fan. You will need to buy a second 120mm fan to complete the picture. This worked out great for me because I just bought the Aquagate R-120, which mounts perfectly and works great.

(3) There is a slot for an additional 80mm fan. This is unnecessary, for use only by SLI users. If you are an ordinary 1 card user, don't bother.

(4)You will need to remove the front plastic grill in order to mount DVD drives. Remove both side walls, and feel around for the detent buttons, squeeze them in and remove the face-plate.

(5) The USB2 plugs and Firewire plugs are not "exploded" they come in a one-piece construction. This is huge. Possibly the single biggest advantage of this case. I have front pannel ports that work for the first time in my life.

(6) If the pastic caps on your two side rail pipes come off (happens frequently) just glue them back on with a little crazy glue.

Works Fine

Comments: I agree with the other reviewers regarding the finish and quality of this case. Over all, it's fine for it's price range. Yes, the optical drive covers can be a pain. Yes, the little silver caps on the colums come off during shipping (Need a drop of glue to fix it) but overall the case works fine.
The reason I chose this case was that it had a front mounted 120mm intake that blew over the hard drives as well as a spot for a rear 120mm exaust fan. Also it has a shrouded side vent to direct outside air directly to the CPU heatsink.
