Does anyone know of a case that looks like the Mac Pro?

buy used mac pro, gut it, mod it to install whatever you want --

or, buy mac pro, install windows XP


I would expect that if a case looks too similar, they would be infringing on a design patent by apple?

Very cheap though.

There was the Chenbro Gaming Bomb 2: http://www.3dvelocity.com/reviews/chenbro/gb2.htm but it is made of unobtainium here in the states. I don't see it on their Taiwan site any more, so I guess it's gone unless you can pry one away from a dead owner's grasp. One of the best ever made - RIP.

Yeah, the Lian-Li ones are nice.

Yeah, that does look nice. http://www.dansdata.com/images/pcv1000/v1000640.jpg

I was hoping for something even more similar, but that will have to do.

I looked and looked and looked and looked for that case. Somebody told me Microcenters had them for like a week, I never found it for sale in the US. What a shame looks like a killer case.

I remember building a system for a friend using the XPider...burnt orange, I believe was the color. I think it came in silver & lime green as well.
Very nice, very decent quality case.
I think I got it on clearance from SVC for ~$20...but that was a couple of years ago.
