Kinda cool idea, but I'd just want to curl up and die if I bumped into someone I knew whilst carrying it down the street.

If you open the case and find a Monitor with or without keyboard, this would become the first portable PC which is much faster and better than a Laptop.

like but dont want or need one.

It would be much nicer if it wasn't so obviously a "Gaming Computer." I know there are many people who might like this look, but I'd much prefer an enclosure of similar size that doesn't announce to the world that you're carrying a high-powered computer in it. I'm thinking all black, with a cover for the Rear I/O area, and vents in discrete spots, like the bottom of the case, for example.

Has anyone heard of a DIY solution to this? It would be an interesting project to put a computer into an actual briefcase.

It's a bit... chunky and tacky.

I bought an aluminium x-box flight / carry case with this idea in mind but never got around to it.

Just go micro atx or mini-itx and put the finished PC in a hold all.

I've seen a few custom mods using an aluminium "Flight Case" style briefcase such as http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/flight-case-with-foam-n70ap

"Cyberpower explains that you can change this PC from a business-use machine to gaming."

Not certain how your customers would react if you'd bring this "battle box" to a meeting. Why do "gaming" PCs always have to look so garish?

heavy!!

It looks awesome but IMO, this will target only a small amount of customers/gamers.
Pro gamers might consider this flying to different places for competitions or those who always want to go on LAN parties but honestly for me I prefer desktop PC at home, Gaming Laptop if I want to step outside. IDK it's just me. But still this is awesome, it's like iron man of PC
