Stick some low-friction wheels underneat and get a remote controlled fan controller - you can then move it around the floor with the power of the fans!

I don't think it looks too bad to be honest - looks "fun". I would however be terrified to use it - if i spilt a drink anywhere near that thing there's nothing to stop it hitting the components so you may as well use a workbench.

There was one big thing that annoyed me about the last LANboy case:

The hard drive slots were not secure enough to hold my hard drives in. The holsters fit the slots very loose. I even had one drive slip out of the slot, and the desktop was never moved. Good thing the machine wasn't running.

I looks ugly and senseless.

I want to take a sledge hammer and smash it to hell.

I never been so disgusted by a computer case.

When I am done I will take all the pieces and shove them into the designer's @$$.

Make it all black, and it would look worlds better. Neat idea. With some tweaks it has real potential.

correct me if i'm wrong but this case looks like it has a poor version of the new suspension system in the new P1000. it looks like instead of a hard mounted rack or pull out cage the brackets hook on to the chassis.

Initially it looks cool to the eye. But 200 EURO = $300 USD! Who would buy a mid tower chassis the size of an Antec 200 for 6 times the price. The construction looks like it is made from plastic tonka truck beams, modder's mesh and thumbscrews. Reality check, it would be affordable if they sold it as a build it yourself kit for like $50 but I am going to take $300 and buy a gun.

Agreed. I'd like a stereotypical 1990's beige computer case over this. If I wanted good airflow, I would just buy a test bed case so that the air can go wherever it wants to, and quietly.

They would make more money if they resumed production of the Super LANBoy, rather than unleash this monstrosity on the world. That was a great case at a great price... This is nothing but a showpiece, completely incapable of contending with the high-end Lian-Li and Silverstone cases which litter the $250+ range. Nobody with an interest in this style is going to pay that much. Either they shell out for a Cooler Master Sniper/Storm or they cheap out and go for a Thermaltake...

DEAR ANTEC, BRING BACK THE REAL LANBOY!!!
