   I'd rather have a 900 v2.0 with the fan controls like the 1200.

   Put a motherboard in it to make it lonely. No, seriously, assuming one has the space available, big cases are a luxury, in my opinion. They are so much easier to work in. If you're like me, you find yourself tearing apart and rebuilding computers often. (It's a hobby, a compulsion, an affliction? )

   Exactly. The size of the 900 is plenty big. I don't have time to be tearing apart computers as much as I used to anymore.

   Perfectly understandable. Big cases did not previously appeal to me. My daughter is married and out of the house; my son is in college and essentially runs his own show. My career has settled down and I work very little overtime. There is time for willy-nilly puter reconfiguring and building. I've become a big full tower case fan. Although I think the Antec 900 is superb in design and quality (my system no. 5 is housed in one), for me it has become the minimum size that I desire for a computer case.

   15 Apr 2008 ~ 8:36pm Harudath Antec 900 is the perfect size for me, although the new 1200 does look sweet. I just hope they improved cable routing... The 900's cables look ****, or it's very difficult to make them look tidy. Mine look like a crow's nest

   15 Apr 2008 ~ 8:44pm Thrax Yeah, cable routing is trash on the 900s. Namely because you can't.

    16 Apr 2008 ~ 9:22am Qeldroma 30+lbs, about $250, attic storage volume in size? Sorry, not my computer case. If I'm going to start thinking in those terms, maybe think 6 foot, 19" rack with multiple CPUs ... la-de-da-de-doh ....
