    BTW, Reseller Ratings not great, but I had no problem as long as you have patience. Hard to track order, took a while, but delivered as promised

    bilsysteM.com

    the post about bilsystem.com is correct (except the hyperlink is www.bilsystem.com, not plurarl)

    the cases and PSU's from him are really a great deal. Cheap stuff, but look good and work pretty well, and a case is a case is a case, if it holds your devices, then it works, right?

    I *WOULD NOT* buy any motherboards from this guy, though, as I've purhcased two cheap PCCHIPS micro-atx boards from him and both were DOA. 0 for 2 is a amazingly craptastic stat IMO.

    Good luck, post some sites if you can find some dirt cheap cases!

    www.amamax.com Same as Upgrade Center INC. Reseller Rating not great, but thats because people don't read their policies, plus this company will hang up on vulgar customers. I've had no problems with them, I've dealt with them twice, both satisfactory experiences.

    I got a cheap case recently and it was a real pain in the @%#! First of all I had to drill all the holes out bigger to get the motherboard standoffs to work. Then it had some sort of non-standard expansion card slots. It had the knock-out slots but no place to screw the card on. There was some kind of cage that fit on the back where I guess they were supposed to connect somehow with something or another that wasn't included. There was probably an easier way that eluded me, but, with the help of a drill, screws, shims and lock washers that's where I put them anyway. I got those babies anchored down. Then it was time to turn it on. When I pushed the on switch it fell inside the case. I had to fix that with superglue and some type of mighty tape I had laying around. I think I gave around $19.00 delivered on ebay which included a 400 watt power supply THAT WORKED!!! Maybe I shouldn't expect more for the price I gave.

    NewEgg has Ahanix for $15-18 plus $15 shipping. Only two fan openings but slide out mobo tray on $18 one. Some sharpedges reported, but lots of bays for the money. No PS, but that's good as most PS with chaep cases are garbage
