Well, since you asked, I think it looks butt-ugly in a 1980's retro sort of fashion. It costs $210. There is only one picture of it.

But to each his own and all that.

The big cost comes fro mthe VFD and remote being added in. You can get ones secondhand yourself for little money though.

Not to mention, unless this is little more hten a playback machine, a single 80mm and 2x60mm fans is not going to d oa nice job of cooling.

My next HTPC case (I have had 3) I will look for ones that have 3-4 120mm fan spots.

I want a shorter case(about 5.5" tall max), but there are only a few(CHieftec HE-01B is what I was looking at) and a couple of more.. I don't like the taller cases...
