great, roomy, quiet and cool case from a well known company
Strengths: lots of room, excellent cooling, psu on the bottom, quiet, very affordable, good brand
Weaknesses: No 3.5" bays, No front firewire port, Front fans sold separately
Review: I bought this case because i was in need of one and the price for this one was very affordable. My previous case had issues with overheating but that problem was solved the minute i put my computer components inside this case. I would recommend buying two high CFM, low noise 120mm fans if you plan on buying this case though. The two fan setup will cool down about any component you install. Also,...

Excellent Case
Strengths: Excellent cooling, room for many drives, numerous fans, great port access, slick lights
Weaknesses: tight case, ports on top have pretty short cables
Review: I got the case a week again and have been very pleased ever since. I previously had my "power rig" housed in the SilverStone TJ-07. It was an excellent case (built like a tank), but had about the same cooling system as a tank (i.e. not much of any). The NINE HUNDRED, though, is the cat's meow of cooling. I have two 7800GTX cards that generate a lot of heat. The vented sides allow...
Weaknesses: Some plastic pieces, while still rugged, are not for the ham-fisted brutes who might try to force-fit something. Suggest regular size PSU with...
Review: I've been building my own computer systems since I started with Heath Kit computers back in 1979. Because of this, I've seen some serious steps in the evolution of the computer case. This is the kind of evolutionary design step that we rarely witness and one which I believe may lead to more designers being inspired to follow Antec's lead. The Skeleton case is truly unique amongst...

Not as good as other Antecs
Strengths: Good looking. Great PSU included. eSATA port.
Weaknesses: Sigle layer steel side panel. Flimsy HDD rack. No sound dampening.
Review: This case has too much hype. It's actually a very ordinary Antec product. There's no sound deadening effort. So for quiet PC purpose, P180/P182 and Solo series are much better and cheaper. There's no wiring management options either so wires look like a mess inside. The only good thing is probably included 500W EarthWatts PSU. DO NOT buy this if you want to build a quiet PC.
It's not just desktops that overheat. Laptops are often designed without... more
Strengths: Lightweight, portable, quiet
Weaknesses: Airflow could be better; also not good for use on your lap
Review: Bought this laptop cooler about a month ago. It keeps my laptop cool, but must be placed on a flat surface. Any soft surface (such as your lap or a cushion) won't work well. It is, however, lightweight, quiet and portable. Not great, but not bad either.

Great case and power supply at a reasonable price
Strengths: Very solid build, lots of room for larger server boards, with enough internal drive bays to accommodate building a good sized raid array.
Weaknesses: Minor gripes.. The tabs holding the front bezel in place are plastic, *could* break if you remove the bezel a lot. 5.25 drive brackets mostly plastic.
Review: Quality case and PSU combo. Working with the front bezel might be a little tricky, and the tabs holding it in place are plastic (hinges are metal though).
As long as you're not looking for a flashy case (it is a server case after all), and you have enough room to accommodate the depth of this case, it's a great buy.

VERIS A/V Cooler Review
Strengths: This unit does a fine job of cooling my receiver. It is attractive with my other audio equipment. It has a two (2) speed user selectable fan - off,...
Weaknesses: The fans are a little a bit loud... they can be heard when the volume is off and you are near the unit.
Review: Neither I nor my wife can hear the fan noise when music is playing or while wathcing a movie. As stated earlier, this unit does substantially reduce the operating temperature of my receiver. I am purchasing another one.
Featuring the latest in noise reduction technology, including dual-layer... more
Antec Solo Case
Strengths: aesthetically pleasing, good size, nice design
Weaknesses: does not come with the two 92mm fans for the front
Review: I got this case for 19.99 after rebate so I can't complain much but the case doesn't come with the 2 92mm fans for the front which cost me around another 20 dollars or a power supply. The hinged front is not good if your case sits on a rug. The design make s it hard to open and close I already chipped mine slightly because it got caught on the rug. I just ordered my fans so I can't...

Excellent Case worth The Money!!
Strengths: Quiet
I personally love the design
Excellent Power Supply that it comes with
Weaknesses: It doesn't come with invisible drive bays
Review: The case is extremely quiet. The tricool fans can be adjusted to different speeds depending on your liking. This case is primarily for a home theater pc setup. The case is a bit long so fitting in your shelves might be a problem. A gripe I have is the cd drives are not invisible. You can make your own but breaking off the parts that hold the drive in and using some double sided tape to tape it on...
