Does anyone have a Case Labs? It's time to take a big step up in style and substance. It's time to go beyond Silverstone and Lian-Li. It's time for an heirloom enclosure. Any owner feedback?

Here's a question: what makes these cases so much better than they're worth more than Lian-Li or Silverstone? Price?

Then I guess we can say Apple > Any PC.

Perhaps material, design, fit, engineering, finish, function, feature, layout, detail...just to name a few. This is precisely my question, so I guess thanks for the "bump".

I looked at all of those. Material is aluminum, everyone uses them. Their design looks very similar to Lian-Li (which they may as well be copying) and SilverStone. Most of the other specs can be found on similar, cheaper cases. And while the minimalistic, industrial design is nice, again, you can get something similar looking, with as many features for a lot less.

In fact, these cases look like they're are more or less designed to be small scale servers or high performance computers (as in, for actually computing stuff). Not for something like playing video games and going on the internet.

Sage insight. Precisely my dilemma.
