what did u feel was missing? I think it looks great, has great cable management and doesnt look that bad. You should watch hardwarecanucks review on it

what really threw me off was something along the lines of "we only built 2 systems in it and it already looks like its years old"

That's weird, considering it's a German company.

Checked out silverstone? RV/FT05 maybe? Or how about the Fractal Design arc midi R2, you can't go wrong with that. Otherwise, something like a corsair 450D probably would be my other choice, although I must say it isn't that good when you see it in person IMHO.
