What do you guys use as a case?

I have been using a Chieftec Dragon since 2004 i think, it's a silver colored full tower case that has done it's job pretty well. My first one was black one and i don't remember what i did with it, but that i missed my Dragon when i got rid of it and didn't use much else for a long time before i got the silver one that was handed to me.  I have lost most of the drive fittings and the extra gear to it though so installing anything more than the most basic stuff will have me using plastic strips to get the job done.

For the three other computers i got. My Smoothwall/Firewall housing a Dual Pentium III 800Mhz, it was the cheapest case with a power supply i could find about 4-5 years ago. It's black and ugly and has probably the thinnest metal siding that i have seen.  My other two Seti@home crunchers running Linux just recently got themselves an upgrade from the junkyard ready scratched to hell and back sharp metal casing to two Antec Three Hundred which are getting quite cheap.

My dragon is on the "to replace list" when i get a job. To replace it, an Antec Nine Hundred or an Antec Solo is on the list of what to get.

Well it's very quiet. Comes with three virtually silent 120mm fans. Insulation all over the place to make it more quiet. Only down-side as far as I've noticed is that the HDD drives get very warm in the builtin bays. No airflow. Other then that and the price, it's a great case Smiley
