Recomendations for black cases

Im planning on building a system for my cousin, and she is really interested in a black case... can anyone recomend a nice mid-size ATX black case. Nothing too big, and nothing too ostentatious! thanks. -cg
 
I picked up the black Alienware 'hydraulic' mid-tower case from Directron and I'm very pleased with it. It only cost me something like $42 without a power supply. Check it out, its a nice one.
 
I agree with the Alienware case suggestion - inexpensive, but good quality. The face cover also eliminates the problem of having to find colored drives or painting your faceplates.

Some people claim the airflow is poor, but I get excellent cooling with mine using a PS w/ intake on the bottom (the default Directron 250W PSes have this), 80mm intake in front, and 80mm intake on the side blowhole (preinstalled as an exhaust, turn it around).
