    Thermaltake release the 'ultimate' case.

    What a monstrosity!
    http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=37013

    I was thinking of buying a Tai Chi, I don't think I will now in case people confuse it with *that*.

    I'm reminded of the Simpson's episode where Homer designs a car!

    Just because you can - doesn't mean you should.

    Do you live near a lot of chav's?

    Living and dying laughing and crying
    Once you have seen it you will never be the same
    Life in the fast lane is just how it seems
    Hard and it is heavy dirty and mean

    I like quality, but prefer it understated....... The Antec P180 (and noe P182) does it for me, and the Antec Sonata for my daughters.
    Try to make each and every day the best it can be.

    Oh my god, that's absolutely disgusting.

    From the outside it looks like one of those horrible cheap unbranded multicoloured "gaming" cases you can buy for about £25. (minus the screen of course)

    All it needs is a big label on the front saying "WAAAA! I'M DEAD WACKY, ME!" and it will be complete.

    Isn't it about time the likes of Thermaltake and Coolermaster look at what excellent ideas have already been created and then make them better?

    Something like their version of an Exos, made with Swiftech kit, a Storm and ½" fittings, instead of cases which look as if they belong in the corner of a mad professor's room in a Dr.Who episode?
    I'm sure Swiftech would agree to have their brand used in Thermaltake products.

    Simplicity, ease of use and a decent pricetag are all we ask, not OTT fantasy rubbish with a double cost pricetag.

    What bothers me the most is that somewhere, some mong is actually giving the go-ahead to put these buckets into production. Sack him, before he brings the company to its knees!
