Thinking about buying this case, can the users of this case tell me what they think about it? The pro's or con's, what other cases you were thinking about.

I like the looks of this, how its transportable with ease, it's light, and it will fit all my hardware with adequete cooling I believe.
 
Pros

-Light
-Looks "cool"?
-No fan filter in front can fit unless you user modders mesh


Cons

-FLIMSY
-rattles like crazy (not silent oriented)
-Can be quite loud depending on sielnt preference



Look on silentpcreview, check em out.
 
I remember considering this case a while back. It does indeed look nice - great styling, small and compact for a mid-tower case. Unfortunately I read some user reviews over the internet that seemed to disagree when it came to issues of cooling.

A few users stated that it got *very* hot inside their systems, while others said that cooling was adequate. Since I had overheating issues with my Lianli pc6070 case in the past, I decided to go with the larger, but roomier and cooler p180.
 
I really like mine. It is fairly quiet, not a quiet as my sonata, but quiet enough. I replaced the front fan with a coolermaster LED fan (21db) and the rear fan with a Yate Loon. Considerably quieter than stock. Also if you get this case you will want to buy a modular power supply to complement the clear side panel.
 
The thing I liked about mine is that it was light and I liked the hardware and fan orientaions. What I didn't like is that it was cramped, a little loud and flimsy. Plus I'm not a big fan of LEDs so the front fan was annoying (its easy enough to disconnect). I bought it because a rebate awhile back. But it makes a great DVD overflow holder! Pic!
 
I just bought one for $30 bucks at CompUSA after 40 MIR and my 10 dollar gift card. Cooling won't be an issue for me because I'm mod'ing it. I'm going to cut out a hole and put in 1 or possibly 2 intake fans on the side panel. I know a few people who made the case extremely cool by replacing the stock front & rear fans with higher RPM ones too which also works well.
 
Ok, read the review on silentpcreview and that helped. I did see that MIR for compusa that's why I was kind of thinking about this case. I like how it's light and the way it looks, the only thing I am worried about is how flimsy it is. It is definetly a choice of mine, I'll have to see how long that compusa MIR is good for.

Does anyone know of a similair case that's close to the lanboy? I saw a coolermaster Ammo that was along the lines...sorta....
 
Bah, just relized it's for in-store only, and for me to drive to the nearest compusa it would be almost equal with the discounted price and gas money. Too bad...
