On one of the last pages of the Maximum PC magazine, I saw this computer.

I was wondering if someone could help me identify the case this company used? Or did they "fake" it? The side looks like the side of an Antec case...

I scanned it - Please take a look?...

The company (ViciousPC.com) said they can't disclose information about who makes the case. Hmm!

That case has been faked. Its obvisous it aint really black and theyve made it that way. can u see how the drives are tinted black and have black writting on em. If they were black thed use white writting.

Also the floppy disk drive is black and where was the last time u saw a black floppy drive.

It looks like a pretty cool case but that has been enhanced so dont expect it to look like the one in the pick.

If you think im wrong let me know

its similar looking to an Antec sx1030/40. Although, the antecs are better cases lol. Just buy an antec sx1040 and paint it.

that case looks pretty cool, it's like the chieftec/chenming/enermax cases but without the swing door.

last time I saw a black floppy was this AM. It is sitting on my desk at home waiting to go into one of my Black SX1000's. You can get one shipped from new egg for $22 or so. They are not uncommon at all!

Uh, I'm staring at my black dell computer with a black cdrom drive with black lettering, a black case with black lettering, and a black monitor with black lettering.

I'm betting that if the #1 selling computer company in the world puts black letter on black products, then other companies do it to.

Ya think?

And let me guess now u are gonna in to go check your web site with black writting on a black background.

If your sad enough to buy a dell you deserve enough of my sympathy to win this argument by default =]

What's with all the Dell Owner bashing anyways? Just cuz their computer isn't the most perfect in the world don't mean jack about the person.

Anyways...

Schweet case! It'd be nice in a lil smaller version :)

"What's with all the Dell Owner bashing anyways? Just cuz their computer isn't the most perfect in the world don't mean jack about the person."

Firstly it says something about the owner if he decided to buy a brand name pc which is worth less then the same pc from a store and cost a whole lot more. I assume it was eother the looks, he's stupid or he thinks that brand name pc charge more because they use better parts.

Secondly he said that dell is the best manufacturer ever. What i wanna say that the local pc store is the second best maunufacturer cause he makes ur pc at the lowest of price and actually asks you what you want inside. The best manufacture is your self. Waste half an hour, find out how to build a pc and do it your self.

P.S. By black writting on a black drive you didnt mean the logos indented into the plastic cause thats not what im talken about. Im talken about the things written on ur drive. it wont be black on a black drive. Unless the company that made it has no brain and can not work out that the human eye can not distinguish betwen black and black.

Hey I'm with Dawg...that is a graphically enhanced picture. Those are obiously beige CD-ROM drives mysteriously matching a supposedly black case?:confused:

That is a beige case my man!


<edit> on second thought, it's the scan quality that's screwing us all up! Find a better picture!!!</edit>:|

Actually the case is black but the drives are beige.. anyway what does the real drive color matter anyhow? He wanted the CASE people, and that case is black..

I am looking at the ad myself (in my maximum pc) and as far as I know plextor doesn't put out any grey burners. So that picture must be altered.

I did have a cool idea from that picture though. Do they sell semitransparent spray paint?

Maybe the guy has more important things to do than spend hours building custom pc's? Maybe he has a demanding job, or kids, or maybe he just likes his spare time. So you really can't tell anything about a person by what type of pc they buy ... but you can tell something about a person who loves to nitpick and judge people based on stupid things such as this. You're making a great impression there n00b.

Looks similar to an Antec SX1030/40. But I don't know for sure. I'd just buy an Antec and paint it.

Lay off the crack, it will eventually kill ya!!!!!

It doesn't say jack sh*t about the person. All your post does it make you look like a dickhead, so I suggest you retract ya comment, say sorry and try and be nice in these forums. People don't take to kindly to l33t n00bs. Grow up!

He didn't say Dell is the best manufacturer in the world, he said,

<< 'm betting that if the #1 selling computer company in the world puts black letter on black products, >>

Big difference dipsh*t, grow up!!!! :|

You think people that buy dells are stupid?
So what if they don't know how to build a pc - that doesn't make them stupid, its just a different area of knowledge.
How about everyone here labels you as stupid because you can't spell and have the grammar of a 6 year old?
That seems fair enough by your standards.

Kinda like flaming someone about what brand computer that happens to be sitting there? It sure says something about the person posting.

Or, like me, sitting at work - who only buys desktops from dell, servers from either dell or ibm. I'm not with the Gov anymore, but supporting the USACE for 2 years, the only thing I worked on was dell.



<<

>>



He actually said #1 selling. While I've no clue if tha's true, I can believe it (with the US Gov. and other massicly large institutions buying from them)

Of course, here I am arguing with someone who hasn't seen a black floppy drive... WTF am I thinking.
