Damn straight. My Antec p183 has already had two completely different set of 'guts' and probably a third pretty soon. It is simply put the best case I've ever seen. If I ever bought a new case it would be an Antec, but I don't think I'll have to for a long time since 30 pounds of 0.8mmm of rolled steel dosen't exactly get beat up.

It looks like a children's toy. Yes, I said "children's".

They had one at intel lanfest in sac last month the gave away as the grand prize in a scavenger hunt. It looked ok, seem to be able transport it easier. Kinda cool layout... but i would worry about the dust and pet hair.

I just have one question....how many pets do you guys have? lol

Two words. Positive Airflow

All fans on that case are (or should be set up as such) intake fans. It's creates a positive pressure in the case that makes it quite difficult for dust or hair or cats or marmosets or moose to get inside it and settle.

Um... aren't intake fans the worst thing for pet hair? You would essentially be sucking in all of the dust and hair into all of your components. I don't think this is a good method unless it can be explained differently.

I'd like to see some tests long term to see if it is true, but that's basically how antec described it. All fans intake... creates positive pressure inside... no dust.

I guess the case would be much better looking if it were all black. Throwing the colors in it make it look like a Lego set.

well i like legos! but im more interested in cable management

Well. I have it. it only comes with 5 fans. I have the blue and black one. You can put like 20 fans in this. Its real easy to access the HD and all your hardware.
