The case looks weird, particularly the front door, I don't know what they were thinking. I think that designer got overzealous trying to impress us.

It's no wonder Macs make up their sales at the high-end:

High end PC's seem to be the bastard offspring of some giant robots and an aftermarket car bodykit factory.

Why doesn't anyone except Apple make a prebuilt PC that looks cool?

For me to accept a computer that requires 1000 Watt it had better do something impressive like support teleportation of objects over long distances, but for just gaming.. I don't think so :)

How about making a gaming rig that looks like a proper gaming console. Something that will look good next to other audio/video equipment and your display. Give it Tivo functionality. Sell it with a wireless mouse/keyboard setup similar to what the phantom was going to sell. In other words, an HTPC that can play games.

I'm pretty sure if you feed fresh deadwood into this thing somewhere, garden-quality mulch comes out somewhere else.

Yay, another massively overpriced and absolutely hideous waste of money and hardware. The cost of this garbage would be better spent on the down payment of a new car or something.

Meanwhile, PC gamers who actually spend their money wisely will continue to build systems that perform at least as well as this while costing 1/5 the price or less. Awesome.

It looks like an 'attention-getter' PC to show off to all your geeky friends. "WTF is that thing, dude?" comes to mind along with other lame ass responses.

Really poor door design. You have to unplug any headphone and USB device on the front before you can open the door. It also mean you cannot put anything on the top of the case.

I must say, that is a pretty cool front-panel idea.
