Same way they produce any other item. The metrics are identical.

He just means cheap windows are difficult to keep looking nice after time. 

 

Some people also find they look tacky.

 

It's not about how they are gonna make a profit. It's about what one might find appealing.

well for a company it is more about your profit rather than what is appealing especially for a company as snakey as thermaltake

Well you can't make profit on items you can't sell because people think they look like shit.

 

The company, in a competitive market, doesn't matter, what the consumer thinks does. 

 

If you like it, get it. You asked for an opinion and got one. Dunno what else to say.

It doesn't matter if they care about your profit. (They do) What matters is that customers find it appealing and buy it.

 

Customer doesn't find product appealing = No sale of product

No sale = no profit

So you increase the price. Do you really think glass is that expensive to make? It's not. Especially when ordering on a mass scale. Not only that but at the thickness they'd be using it's not that expensive either. You'd just increase the price of the case accordingly, just like how any other business would.

think they would be bending that glass. difficult practice for mass production and the hopes it would be accurate

Not for a glass maker. How do you figure they make cups?

Or coke bottles..

 

The biggest issue is making sure it doesn't break during shipping..

what do you mean they care about your profit. as in my profit or theirs i also understand that if a product is not appealing that it wont sell but thermaltake would be more inclined to take your money and not be too concerned whether the product is satisfactory.

They can't just steal my money... I wouldn't give it to them in the first place with an ugly plexi glass window...

this is tempered glass.show me one case with bent tempered glass that would be affordable enough to not make you consider another case.

No. Especially when tempered glass is a reasonable option...

Yeah. Even then not overly difficult. I don't think the OP knows how glass is made...it's not like you take hardened glass and try to bend it. Shipping wouldn't even be that big of an issue. Look at something like Duralex. Virtually unbreakable. Plus wine glasses are a million times more fragile.

[Mick Naughty]

Tempered glass is for women. The case is pretty good for the price. It's exactly what I would expect for the price range.
