Looks like a very smart way to deal with the length of the PSU/Optical drive issue, but that's the only thing I like about it. Cooling should be interesting - it uses the PSU fan to cool the entire case like the Antec Aria.

looks like it might be nice and easy to mod also - couple of 120mm fans on the sides of the panels- then switch the PSU over (if possible) and have the PSU recieving nice cool air also :)
 
The design of that shuttle looks great although having a PSU cool the entire case? That sounds like asking for trouble to me. I think it should at the very least of an 80mm case fan on the top blowing air out.

It works fine in the Antec Aria. But in this system the PSU is standard sized and mounted away from the CPU area so you can fit a full-size cooler (or so I'm told by the AOpen rep.
 
Like the music, lol.

Is very much a LAN rig but seems to do what it's designed for quite well. Looks a lot better in black/silver i think myself. Main problem i can see is that its against the like of the sugo which i would expect it to be a similar price to. Cant really see it being better than the sugo but then again it depends on your tastes.
