Hehe. Aluminum is not cheap. Your best bet is to go to pricewatch.com and search for Lian Li.

Thanks! Pricewatch.com is a very useful site.
Currently the best deal I could find is this one (http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/things/375f.html) , $209 for a case with window kit, but I just need the case, nothing else. I think it should be about $120 or so.

Goto www.ebay.com . You can pick up a lian li pc60 case for like $150 which is the cheapest you are going to find a good alluminum case.

$99, how is that for cheap, I got this case and it is awesome, you are not paying for a fancy name like Lian Li. No power supply. It does come with fans, but that is just a bonus.

It says it's a mini tower but it looks more like a mid tower. What would you consider it to be?

Does all your stuff fit comfortably in it? That looks like a pretty cool case. Could you post some pics?

Also, what type of features does it have as far a things like a slide out mobo tray go.

at overclockingstore.co.uk they do the lian li pc2, which is like the pcv12 without the removable tray and stuff
