Upcoming mATX box

This could be potentially interesting for some of you.

There's a megathread on [H], where the builders ran through and captured ideas from members.

Now that's an interesting concept, I have a case kind of like that, but with less ventilation and some internal brackets that keep a full height cpu cooler from fitting on it. I'd still be worried about getting full air circulation to the video cards with the psu right above them. But it's a pretty decent idea.

Yeah, the lan-gear "Da Box" is supposed to be available within the next few weeks at around $160. They are also coming out with a mini-itx case which is probably a good idea since mini-itx seems to be the new sff.
