Descent
Pros: Cool, bright led's if your into that kinda stuff. My case has no clear/acrylic pannels but I still see light through the vents; Not very noisy... the noise is actually easily tolerable; Cheap (on this website); Does just what it says on the package. no gimics just a descent little fan.
Cons: The shroud around the fan is made of two halves epoxied together. It wasn't held together very well cause one of the corners started coming up during instalation but it's not that big a problem. It still works fine.
Good case for the money

Pros: - Looks awesome - its a very neat design that its clear on all sides and you can see all the pc hardware - good ventilation - having five fans pushing air really makes this thing breezy inside - spacious interior - since all sides are perfectly flat and have square corners, it makes the most of the total dimensions of the case
Cons: - bad construction - the acrylic panels themselves feel pretty solid but the problem lies in the screws that hold them together. the chrome headed thumb screws actually have plastic heads which makes them feel pretty cheap. - more bad construction - the screws that hold the removable side panels on screw into little grommets embedded in the acrylic of the adjacent pieces, and one of them has already came out and no longer holds the screw securely and another one is starting to feel loose. - needs regular cleaning - when you combine steady ventilation and the static cling of acrylic panels you get a load of dust accumulation, and the clear panels make it more noticeable than the average case.
Overall Review: If youre into clear sides, this would seem like an awesome idea. It is a really neat and pretty case, but good idea, bad design. the way the panels are held together needs to be more effective. But if you want to buy this case and dont plan on doing much handling of it and taking the sides off very often then it could work for you. For the money, you get what you pay for.
Not too shabby

Pros: Good deal through Newegg, at this price I would recommend getting this version of vista. Its a pretty user friendly system when you get used to it. I've been using this version of vista for bout two years and so far its not given me too much of a problem.
Cons: It has had a few little hiccups along the way, such as the display driver will randomly stop working for about two seconds every once in a while.
Overall Review: I dont particularly care for a few of the programs that come with Vista such as Windows Media Center, Internet Explorer and Windows Photo Gallery. In place of those I use iTunes, Safari and Photoshop. Overall, Vista is not bad.
