But the case is certainly ugly as fuck, sorry. There is no way around it. If the only way to get the features you want is this particular case or something equally hideous, then there is a massive hole on the market, cause clearly if you would care about the looks as well, you would be cardinally screwed.
We are going to have to agree to disagree regarding appearances, cases and aesthetics. I like the appearance of this case, you don't. You like Antec and Fractal Design, I don't. So you see, it's just going to be a tit for tat if this line of thinking continues, and I believe there are many more constructive ways to communicate, don't you?
Furthermore, while a picture can say a 1000 words, the posted picture doesn't do it justice. One has to meet this case up close and personal to appreciate its design and unique features. Similarly, I wasn't overly impressed when I first saw a pic on the Thermaltake site, but when I was given a close up inspection at a local PC store I fell in love with it. Had I not chosen this case, however, the alternative would have been a Coolermaster Cosmos II, which is a decent enough case but would have put a bigger dent in the budget @ $400+.
Quoting Timmaigh, reply 61Other people commenting positively about the "Sexy" look of the case proves nothing, it just shows how many people lack aesthetical taste . No offense to anyone.
Up yours, Gordon..... [quote from a movie I bet no-one remembers].
It's not my personal preference...I like 'simple and chic' [preferably leave out the blue fans, etc] but the only issue I see with its 'style' is the lumps and bumps make it a dust-catcher....like my wife's trinkets on the mantel piece.
There are a hell of a lot of cases far fuglier than Starker's ....
Not only do I remember the movie and still have it on DVD somewhere, I had a piece of Flesh Gordon merchandise... a penisaurus doll thingumy that used to cause great hysteria when I pulled it out of my fly/zipper at parties, etc. Hehe, I was a wikkid SOB in my younger days... but would probably still have it today for laughs had somebody not stolen it way back when.
As for the lumps and bumps, dust catching, that's all cool, I'll dust every day to ensure I maintain its remarkable looks...
.... and the word you were looking for was mantle. 
Oi, look at that everybody, look at that. I corrected Jafo, I corrected Jafo... I corre....had better pipe down before I get myself in the sh!T
