I have two of the Yeong-Yang Cube Cases (had another, but sold it for $50 because I screwed up the paint job). The YY-B0210 and YY-B0221 currently house two of my systems. I prefer the older (0210)models to the newer (0221) models because the bezel is much less likely to break off (and if you plan on modifying it with an air duct in the front it's better). Currently, only casedepot.com carries the older versions to my knowledge.

Key reasons the cube is better than your standard ATX case:
1. It can accomodate an entire water-cooling setup.
2. It seperates the drives from the motherboard area and hence has better cooling possibilities.
3. You can modify it to the point of insanity and still have a logical layout for fans, blowholes, windows, lights, etc.
4. Better cable management means better looking system.
5. No sharp edges.
6. It comes in black or beige.

Of course, this is my opinion. There are some other great cube cases like the Chenbro Netserver and Echo cases, but they are mroe expensive and may be a bit too large if you plan on using the case for LAN parties or you have a very limited amount of space in your office/dorm/whatever.

i found it for 150 @ caseoutlet.com ... servercase.com and rackmountpro.com also claim to sell it for $150 (on pricewatch) but i couldn't find it for that price.
