First thing from Spire that actually interests me. I hope this one is within 50 euro price range. Then it competes directly with CoolerMaster Elite 130 mini-ITX series. If you don't want a cube, like I do, then this could be a real option for mini-itx case on the budget side of the things. Knowing Spire, it should be :)

1998 called and wanted its ports back...
Seriously? That was the best mini-ITX board they could find to demo their new case with?

If that PSU can really do 300W continuously for more than an hour, I'll cut my balls off.

Other than that, this actually looks kind of decent for budget mITX builds.

Ugly, but great layout. Maybe I'll put a paper bag over it and cut fan holes. :roll:
Seriously though I do think the layout is great.
