Just how much disposable income do you people have?
A PC to some people can be just as important as their car, and especially for high end users, the added functionality of high end cases is enormous. Simply writing £100+ cases off as an unnecessary extravagance is a little closed minded. Any car that goes faster than 80mph and fits more than 4 people is an extravagance, but not everyone drives slow old bangers do they?
The extra build quality, and potentially superior noise levels and cooling performance afforded by a higher end case, as well as the massive increases in ease of assembly more than make up for it. If you've only ever used $50 - (£25!) cases, you owe it to yourself to at lease investigate a higher end case if you consider yourself a computer enthusiast. If you shop right, you really do get what you pay for, and a quality case will last you years.
I wish i could think out a case for manufacturer X. It would stop all the questions about where to put your watercooling kits, fans, 10 hd's and all other important stuff. And it will probably be a mid size case that does not cost 300 (ish)
I mean, we all know how a case 'should' be, why don't case manufacturers get this? Thinking about this... Bit-Tech call them/mail them and suggest to them, that BT wants to make a BT Case that covers all our case rants. It will probably the best selling case in the world. (i hope)

lol, epic response but you have to admit there are *some* good features, like the PSU mount placement for example, but yeah, the plastic looks REALLY tacky. Ill stick with Lian Li for now.
