    An early contender for the most eye-catching chassis at Computex 2011?

    Re: Zalman teases solid aluminium L-Shape enclosure

    the panels are L shaped so you have a left/top panel and a bottom/right panel instead of all 4

    Re: Zalman teases solid aluminium L-Shape enclosure

    With regards to the price, 400 to 500 what? £/$/bananas?
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    Re: Zalman teases solid aluminium L-Shape enclosure

    Why does the Zalman Computex booth look suspiciously like a hotel room?

    Austerity measures since they didn't sell many $400 to $500 cases.

    A lot of companies either have a booth or a Hotel suite - depends on if they are Taiwanese based

    Shasis... FACEPALM!

    Btw, isn't one side and the top just missing ? Surely that would attract dust bunnies!

    I don't think you understand

    The entire chassis is a normal shape - but the top and side is an L shape so is the bottom and side so they fit together.
