SilverStone are a company that manufacturer lovely shiny cases often suited to HTPC scenarios. I'd say their LC11 meets those criteria nicely:[The review]The LC11 is a beautiful case and it does indeed look like it belongs in a home entertainment center. The brushed aluminum front panel is distinctive, but subdued (in a good way). The optical drive bay door blends in well with the front panel and its "soft closing" action exudes the class of high-end A/V components. The front-mounted USB ports certainly look like any other USB port, but convenience overrides hiding them on the side or behind a small panel, in my opinion.
