The Powermac G5 case is just awsome, it's probably the best designed case ever imo.

Alienware's cases are too overdesigned :p But their other case, for workstations (I belive) is OK.

the alienware one is UNGODLY UGLY. the g5 looks fairly nice except I'm quite worried about what the front panel will look like after a month of air blowing through it...DUST!

A Swedish guy says the thing is barely even audible, despite the nine fans. Those HUMUNGOUS heat sinks and the air flow design really works well. ie. High-end dual CPU workstation-class QuietPC.

See my post in this thread.
