Teeny cases

I'd just like to ask the collective knowledge of this forum: what are the best teeny cases? Under consideration:

Antec Aria (these are hard to find)
Apevia Q-Pack (I hear that the power supplies like to die)
Antec NSK-1300 (only if I can't find an aria)

Anyone have suggestions on a teeny case? The idea is to make my computer into "carry-on luggage".
 
Well, I like the Aria because of the 8-in-1 flash reader up in front of it. The Ultra MicroFly doesn't have that, and it's a bit bigger than the aria, too. I guess maybe I'm asking if anyone is aware of something as small as the aira with the flash reader. Basically I want the look of a SFF PC and the upgradability of a MicroAtx system. I also would like it to be super-small due to the luggage concern. I dunno-- I'll have a look at anything though, so please toss in your suggestions 🙂
 
I knew someone would say that..... I'd break a laptop in a second. Well, maybe it would take me 2 months. I like having a tethered-down desktop.
 
I am a very clumsy person. Having my computer being something that I can easily pick up and move and therefore drop isn't really desirable. I don't like the idea of carrying my computer around-- I just have to get it to Korea.
 
The athenatech A100 series of cases aren't bad but you do need to be willing to do some work on the cooling. The HDDs can get too warm inparticular. The overall system cooling may also need work depending on your configuration. I think the Athenatech is made in Korea so get your parts and build it there.

You heard right. Mine certainly didn't last long (~2 months). No big loss I suppose -- it was one of those annoying bling PSUs with the shiny mirror finish and blue LED fans.
