I haven't had time to say this before, but I really need to mention about the excellent quality of review images. I just love them, especially the close-look-shots. Not many sites have as high image quality as TPU has. Huge thanks for W1zzard's Powershot Pro1 and his tripod!

Nicely done W1zz ... especially the drives in backwards

does make for a cleaner look... sweet case

Case looks like it's robbed many of the best features from the utterly stunning Shark case from Thermaltake. Especially the side honeycombe grill.

I'll be getting the Shark over this case though, still it's pretty nice and the features I like are all in here. =]

Good review.

Very nice review. I like the little add ins on the pictures.

This case, the Shark, and the Antec P160 are all the same case, and this fact is something that should be pointed out on reviews of duplicate products like these
