EN-7237 vs. PPC Personal Midtower

EN-7237 vs PC Power & Cooling's Personal Midtower

Are they basically on the same level??

In addition to the power supply, would I need to put in a mechanical switch to use a baby AT motherboard in either of these cases?

How do I know if a motherboard or a P/S is a Baby AT?

Personally, PC Power & Cooling's "Personal Mid-Tower" is waaaay overpriced.

Waaay overpriced?
Are you sure?

It doesn't have a power supply and it's about $10 more than an Enlight 7237 w/o a power supply.

But I think the PC Power P/S are expensive though.

I own both the PPC Personal Midtower and the Enlight, so I feel like I can yammer a bit here...

The PPC Personal Mid is one solid case. This thing is a rock, and it feels pretty good to get into and service. The front bezel requires a bit of force to pry loose, though, and can occasionally feel like you're going to snap the clips at the top, but it hasn't broken yet.
Power supplies from PPC are top-notch. Haven't seen a burp in almost three years from my Turbo-Cool 300ATX.

The Enlight felt pretty flimsy to me, and the front bezel almost cost me my knuckles when I tried to pry it off. Insides are pretty straightforward, but I much prefer the PPC when it comes to standoffs - I had a lot of alignment problems with my Enlight when it came to the AGP video card and mobo standoffs. I also dislike the drive rails, the ones I received were not formed very well.

Both are quiet enough, but the PPC Midtower with the PPC Turbo-Cool in it runs just a hair more... evenly, I guess. Sounds smoother.
