Hi,

Remember, looks can be decieving.  What you can't see is the quality of the
inside metal or power supply.  Is it bright shinny tin, that cuts you every
time you touch it or is is heavy 1.0 mil with finished rolled edges.  Is it
a 200 watt non-UL approved power supply or a 330 watt, AMD recommended and
P4 ready supply?  You'll never really know until you get it in your hands.
What you think you might save can be easily spent in returned shipping costs.

Why not look for the case you want locally, get the make and model or the
case and POWER SUPPLY you want, and then try and find that particular
model, if you can't deal with the local merchant.  So you give the local
mercant a few dollars more.  At least you should be able to go and swap a
power supply right away with him if needed and not have to wait for god
knows how long if you mail order it.  E-bay, Yahoo Auction, mail order, are
all fine if the goal is to just save money and you don't care how long your
system may be down because of a failure.




GOD BLESS AMERICA!
