i persomaly like mid towers because its easier to get good airflow and they take up less space, wile not scraficing much unless you have ALOT of 5 1/2 in and 3 1/2 in drives. but if you want bigger ones both those places have them

BTW you can get most of those without windows, those are just the ones i found first.

Sonata ANTEC Life Style Series Black Case With 380W Power Supply (my other choice for a case) its plain smooth and quited down. The PSU has been modified to use one less fan but have the same cooling. Price: $105.00 Hope the wife likes it. :)

http://www.frozencpu.com/cgi-bin/frozencpu/scan/se=Modified%20Cases/se=Real%20Wood%20Cases/mp=menu_search.html Expensive and not all with windows. And a customized one. NOt sure if it has all the ports you want but i know they ahve USBs. Just look at there none wood versions to see if they do. the custumize allows youto have them put wood on your case like the other ones. so pick a case and get at it. Read the description first though so you know how to tell htem to do it. YOu ahve to buy the case from them though.

Coolmaster cases of course: http://www.frozencpu.com/cgi-bin/frozencpu/scan/se=Stock%20Cases/se=CoolerMaster%20Towers/mp=menu_search.html Dont think they ahve front ports though.

http://www.frozencpu.com/cgi-bin/frozencpu/scan/se=Modified%20Cases/se=Blizzard/mp=menu_search.html These dont have windows mostly but no ports? 8\

http://www.frozencpu.com/cgi-bin/frozencpu/scan/se=Modified%20Cases/se=Diabolic%20Minitaur/mp=menu_search.html But it has a quarter sized side window:
Front Panel:
4xFront USB (2.0)
1x1394 Firewire
Audio and phone connector
3G Fan Duct
1x120 mm fan on the rear
Tooless chassis design

None widows lians: you can sort throught these for a good one with all the front stuff. they look like theres alot of USBs ports but i dont know about the other ports.

That Coolermaster Silver Wave Master, now thats a case. Clean, sharp, styled lines. It also has most of the features you really want. Removable motherboard tray and I'm not totally sure how much they mean by the tooless assembly/disassembly but if it has the screwless drive installation side panels that just pop on and off like Thermaltake cases do then its very nice. A little pricey at $169, but not to bad considering my Xaser V2000A was $199.

For BEST cooling performance, that LL Warrior looks top notch. There is a big difference between ALL Aluminum construction and other cases that have just a few parts made of Aluminum like most of them.

tooless is either it just slides off and has things on hte case that hold it on or thumbscrews. Ok hte coolmaster does have ports on it. The site didnt load all the picture the first time for me.
Whats the LL warrior.

Ait, its one of my links, the one there has a window but you can get them without it.

yeah the wavemaster is a nice case, tooless means thumpscrews, and thats very nice to have, i hate using the screwdriver, if you slip you could realy mess something up

[Daleon]

Yea but there are different degrees of tooless. The newest Thermaltakes just released are advterised as totally tool free. Don't even use thumbscrews, they have some new locks for the panels. And you don't have to use any screws on the drives.

Theyve done that on and off with cases since pcs existed basically(no screws). There were alot of towers during the P1 period after a few generation of heavy heavy tower use that didnt have any. They just slid off. There were some none towers but i cant remember any specifically at the moment. Actually i cant remember the company im thinking taht specificaly had alot of the tower ones. It started with an A. And had an x in it. They around about 7-8 years ago obviously.
