| 339669 | 2005-03-30 11:05:00 | Hi Recently I was looking around (dreaming really) at some of the cases you can get for your untrusty lil puter. Now, Im one of these people who would (eventually) like a case with a see thru side. During my internet looking, I came across some cases (namely Xion) that were made from acrylic. There weight was listed as 10kg (I think). My questions are: are these cases fully acrylic (or do they have a metal frame); and if they are fully acrylic how do they stack up against there metal counterparts? |

| 339671 | 2005-03-30 11:19:00 | sometimes a fully clear acrylic case can look ugly.... its similar to models...its best when there clothes are on, leaving the work to the imganiation. bearing all sometimes doesnt do it. thats my worthless opinion.... |

| 339673 | 2005-03-30 12:45:00 | they look fine especially with a few well placed leds but after two weeks you begin to notice the dust build up and from then on its downhill all the way. | the highlander (245) | ||

Thanks for those links Murray. That case and the see-through hard drive are fantastic. :nerd: I wonder if I could bribe The Boss into making me one... :cool: |

| 339677 | 2005-03-31 03:30:00 | A few weeks ago I brought this case www.dse.co.nz It comes with a clear panel and the standard metal one :) Last night I noticed a dead mosquito :horrified illuminated by a tri-colour led fan. It must have been sucked through the intake fan at the front. |
