    Thermaltake Mambo Case $24.99 AR *Shipped Free*

    I bought one of these and thought it was crap. Flimsy as hell. Almost needed a sledgehammer to get a floppy into the bay. Door situated so case needs to be on the left, front usb cables would be on the desktop. thought the toolless bay anchors were weak. No way the limited front opening can...

    *Hot* - Lian-Li PC-7B Plus II for $80 at Newegg

    Thermaltake Mambo Black Steel ATX Mid Tower $14.99 AR

    I think the case is crap.....120mm fan mount in front is a joke (tiny opening up front), flimsy door that opens for placing case on left, front usb for placing case on right, front panel doesn't fit flush with 1 corner of the frame, drive mounts sloppy.

    Few Questions

    I've used door edge molding from auto parts stores before as trim on a fan hole. Chech the flexability of the various brands they offer, as some do not bend well to a tight radius.
