    If this had free shipping I'd buy it.

    Just think of it as $18 plus free shipping.

    Not a terrible shipped price for cheap case with no power supply. The front USB and audio jacks are poorly positioned, though. Only room for an 80mm fan in the rear, but it looks like it may take a 120mm fan in the front.

    I bought one of these.
    The steel edges weren't rounded and were very sharp.
    While building a new machine with an Intel Atom, I found it to be so slow that I cut my wrists on the case and bled to death.

    Seems they forgot that a case with exhaust needs intake area. You could hack away at this flimsy case and it would cool ok but why bother? If you're gonna spend time at least it should be a case you LIKE, that you wanna reuse a few times.

    On the other hand if you build something very slow and low heat like the Atom platform #8 mentioned, this would work but why would one pick the reduced size platform only to put it in a full sized case?

    Not touching these crappy cases. I had to put together 50 of cases like these and you cut your finger to pieces if you turn screws the wrong way. The holes in the HD trays are a MoFarker to screw in and you can't really get easy access to them.

    If I was building this for a one shot deal and not tearing it apart: Maybe.

    As I like to tinker with my cases from time to time having front opening bays, easy removable trays, and plenty of circulation I'll pass on these cheap crappy cases.
