Agreed. I hate flash sites.

I am also on the case hate side. Then again I have a basic $35 case and an old system.

Looks ok but I still think my kandalf case beats it.

its nice, I like the fact that its not just a square box. Probably wouldnt buy it for that price.

I guarantee that my Corsair Graphite 600 is far superior in all respects to that case and its only "advantage" is crazy ass looks.
If they sold it for like $200, it might appeal to some. But I doubt they have sold many at the price point they are asking for.
Heck, they even had to make a weaker version of it just to move some product.

My favorite mid tower cases right now are the Corsair Graphite 600 and the Cooler Master Storm Sniper. Unfortunately, I need more real estate for all of the gear I have under the hood.

My favorite mid-towers would probably have to be the Antec 902 (Currently using), Antec 300 Illusion, Lian-Li PC-P50WB, and the Cooler Master Storm Scout.

I have the Antec 900, it is very nice to work with on the install and has plenty of space on the interior for water I'd think having never used water. But I know it has the tubing holes on the back of it for water cooling.

I have the Antec 900 II and it's baller and super quiet.

The 900 has a lot of room. But defiantly not enough for water cooling on the inside of the case. Its just not designed for interior water cooling. The tubing holes are for exterior water cooling. An example of a kit is the Swiftech H20-220 I belive is the name.

And in all honesty, not many inexpensive cases are designed for water cooling with an all internal loop. Cases like these need a lot of additional space on the top or bottom to accommodate radiators with fans. Any serious water cooling case should allow a 360 rad and a 120 rad. Hell, even my Cooler Master Cosmos S is a tight squeeze, and it is a huge case.

I think the styling for the Antec 900 is just outdated. It was cool when it originally came out, but there are just better looking cases, with better airflow. The HAF series cases are taking over in terms of popularity for air cooling, while the serious water coolers are moving to the Corsair 800D series cases as they allow for a lot of room for components and have great cable management.

While the Antec 900 is a mid tower, I just think there are better options, with better styling, cable management options, and airflow for $50-100 extra. The extra price you pay will be worth it in the long run.
