Based on the picture's properties, it is a Sunus Suntek STK7618.

Here's their site: http://www.suntekgroup.com/stk7618b.htm

Their Taiwanese site seems to be down: http://www.suntekcomputer.com.tw/

Not finding their stuff on sale anywhere with a quick Google search.

doesnt look aesthetically pleasing imo

The manufacturer tells me they still have a few in stock but they quoting me $120 shipping included.

This case is discontinued. It is over 10 years old. Directron in the states has the orange case still at $9.99 but shipping is expensive.

Yeah, looks fugly to me... I think I might have seen some pics on Craigslist of people selling their old systems with that case, lol.

It is a translucent case. Its an old case. I miss those old cases from the late 1990s. Today the PC case market has lost its way. Everyone is just copying each other. There is nothing new.

I had that case about 10 years ago. It was extremely crappy compared to the cases out there today. The cable management was awful, tons of sharp edges, cheap plastic bezel.

 

[daro2096]

Yes, I know. All cases back then had bad cable management. sharp edges and cheap plastic bezel.

But you got to admit those cases back then had style. Today cases all look the same.

Just feeling a bit nostalgic for the late 1990s.

I don't know what to tell you. If you have to have this particular case, you'll likely pay through the nose. If you merely want an '90s style case, there are a few Asian manufacturers that seem to still have products aimed at that niche...

Look for Apevia and Logisys, for a start.

Or buy a modern, well-designed case and spray-paint it the '90s shade of your choice and slap a floppy drive in it.

Well I could mod the floppy drive bit and put in a card reader you know but I take your point.

I guess you can call it "style" I call it a bad case of the Fugly.
