Thats a pretty sexy looking case if I do say so myself.
Neat looking design and looks like it will/would have plenty of air flow through it if you use all the fan openings they give you.
Nice Review Airman!

I saw this case unveiled over at Computex. I couldn't take photos of the inside at the time because it was under NDA, so I can't believe you already got to review it. Awesome.
