[SunRescue] OT - Have I lost my mind (looking for a good PC case)

Not wanting to break the bank, but I am looking for a good PC case to house
my new monster, a PIII/1 GHz system, and I came across this at centrix Intl.
( http://www.centrix-intl.com/altos1200.htm ) - YOW!

I don't think I need quite that case (although it *does* include 430 Watt
PS, 8 hot-swap SCA drives on 2  backplanes, a lot of cooling fans, and the
floppy drive ;^), but my other option appears to be an PC Power & Cooling
Mid-size case w/300 Wat PS for about $145 +/-.

I am looking for a good solid ATX case, but I want to keep the price
reasonable (I paid $450 for the MB, CPU and 128 Meg PC800 RDRAM - it is an
Intel Evaluation Kit). I suppose another Inwin/Enlite (SP?) case would be
OK, but I am hoping for something a little different this time...

Ideas?

(Sorry for diverging from our normal course of cable ties, cost of living,
and other suce sun-related topics ;^)

Thanks,

Ken
