This is an interesting concept:

Computex 2008

Antec Site

I quite like it although in truth it's really just a fancy test chassis.

Your thoughts?

edit (Ian) : Moved this to hardware, as anything posted in quick news appears in the daily news roundup part of the frontpage

edit (dumbo) : Oops, think I'd know that by now

IF they had a perspex dome or something that encased the whole thing then perhaps, but surely even with that fan its gonna get covered in dust?

Something new though.

I think a perspex dome would somewhat negate the cooling factor.

The dust problem did occur to me though.

Although, when you think about it, conventional computer cases soon clog up inside with dust, at least that skeleton case makes for easy - and therefore probably frequent - cleaning.

Not my cup of tea, but it would be fantastic for testing components!

Was this to show brave you were with it or to give someone else a shock!

Unfortunately neither I'm not keen on them when they are this big (wouldn't really want to have it crawling around on me!).
