If you ask me, that looks like a hybrid aluminum/copper case. The only problems I see with a copper case are added expense (even more than aluminum) and added weight. I'm no so sure having differing metals bonded to each other is a good idea either. There may be some electrolytic action going on there...
IMO, that case is bad because 1) the copper will oxidize and look nasty without upkeep, 2) Copper is very heavy compared to aluminum, 3) It will be much more expensive them an all aluminum case
Oh, and if you think it will cool your computer better, you're dead wrong and will have wasted a fortune
I echo FlowerMan's sentiments exactly. When I first saw that, I thought to myself "oh man that's gonna tarnish something awful." Also, copper is malleable, so if it mostly copper and not a 50-50 alloy, it wont keep its shape too well. Its probably just copper-coated I imagine though.
