Somehow I don't think this case will fit in too well.

Can't imagine having my entertaintment system in living room.....a nice flat panel TV, reciever, dvd player, and a computer case made out to look like a fricken helicopter. A blue helicopter, no less.

What a shocker, it's in stock. :roll:

Definitely a contender for the "ugliest case" awards.

If you're really shopping for one, consider the Antec NSK2400 with a black DVD-ROM or burner, see the review at SilentPCReview.com.

Or the Silverstone SG-01 though it runs hotter and louder. The Ultra Microfly and Aspire X-QPack are a bit taller and won't fit in many AV racks.

Or for about $25 shipped I have a nice Cooler Master HTPC desktop with black aluminum face you could take to give me an excuse to get the NSK2400 :)

"Type - ATX Mid Tower" *chuckle*

Funny thing; people have been custom-building one-off cases made to look like whatever for years. Now they are mass-producing them. Strange how that's come around.

Imagine how dusty your system would get! :( You'd have to dust it every day like furniture or something.

Pics with parts installed!

Maybe that's what the blades are for at the top? They move so fast they repell the dust :p
