Serious computer enthusiasts know that the best computers come in home made cases. Sure, it's a lot more work, but that's what makes it uniquely yours. If you want some inspiration, or to just be impressed, check this out.
"Modders descend from a line of hackers that includes the Homebrew Computer Club, which in 1975 began meeting in a California garage to experiment with modifying the first personal computer, the Altair 8800. Club members Stephen Wozniak and Steve Jobs went on to form Apple Computer to sell the machine Wozniak created. But despite its auspicious beginnings, DIY computer building caught on slowly. It was not until the late 1990s--when parts became cheap and geeks could share tricks of the trade online--that modding took off. Today, magazines and competitions are dedicated to the craft, and CompUSA stocks modding gear such as LEDs and water-cooling units."
