A desktop case, that is..
I was just looking through the latest edition of CPU User, and I came across an advert for the perfect Windows 8 desktop case. Like Windows 8, it lacks some of the more traditional elements that we have come to expect.
What it has..
- Futuristic looks
- Easy access to the ‘internals’ (or are they externals)..
What it hasn’t got..
- No sides
- No top
- No base
- No provision for water-cooling
- No provision for case fans
- No provision for supporting the ports back-plate on the motherboard
.. but it does come in an exciting electric blue colour with touches of Canary yellow and matt finish greyish black (or maybe a blackish grey), what there is of it.
I can’t find a price for it, no reseller who has one, and I can’t extract a photo of the case because InWin have them locked down… sooooooooooo, take a look here..

If it was a red colour, it would look a little like a portable generator.
Will I be getting one any time soon? No.
Would I ever get one, even if I could find a price and reseller? No
Of course, there are some who would say that I am stuck with old concepts and don’t like change. Absolutely untrue of course because I recently upgraded my entire system. Yes, I will admit to buying a case with sides, top and base, but who wouldn’t?
