Now, that's pretty cool. However, when I buy a new computer, I always just go with the cheapest case. I mean, I've got a thermaltake case here because newegg or Amazon were selling them for ~$20 when I was building my machine. I got some aopen pro line (or whatever they called them - big gray boxes) but I just don't care to have 1/16 inch thick metal in a case anymore.
I also picked up a spare from the local hacker group a few months ago that I might use for a new computer if I can't find something better for cheap at the time. But my philosophy on desktop hardware has changed too - I might just figure out how to get a board, proc, and ram for <$100/ea and machine something that would fit 10 or 20 of them in a nice (semi accessible / swopable) container with fans. A home brew blade solution of sorts.
