I generally only use Inwin cases these days - the deluxe model has a
slide out tray so that the whole motherboard comes out with the cards
attached. So, I'm no longer too fussed about removeable panels for each
side.

What are the requirements for the case you're after? Is it middle ATX,
or full tower ATX?

Note that this case does not take many slotket (slot 1 to Socket)
adaptors without modification due to the position of the power supply.
So, if you have a slot 1 motherboard and wish to use a newer cpu via
the adaptor, look for another case.

Aside from that the cases are nice. The slide out tray is good, but
the leads from the the PS and the front panel buttons are too short
meaning that the tray will not slide fully out to expose the
motherboard without disconnecting them.

They have REAL reset swicth, which is also very nice. No poxy micro
button crap.

If you are running an authentic slot 1 cpu or a socket motherboard and
cpu, you'll have no troubles.
