A few more Mini P180s:
Antec Mini P180 *Rebuild*

Couple of video reviews:
Oh, this is such a sweet window mod:
Just found these beautiful photos on MDPCs of an Antec Mini P180 build and good to see it impresses the guys on there:
I dont normally like them, but the door on the mini p180 works really well at noise dampening. Its also very high quality so it doesnt feel flimsy or tacky or like its going to break.
Yeah its a good layout, and has perfect positions for fans. Unlike my old 300, the mini p180 has a 120mm intake fan that goes straight to the cpu and a 120mm fan straight to the gpu. If you get what i mean.
I haven't been able to find anywhere in the UK that sells pre-modded side panels so far. There is in the US however.
The best that i have found in the UK is a shop that allows you to send your panel to them then they do the job and send it back to you. Which I am tempted to try one day.
Unfortunately I cant post a link/name of it here because it is against forum rules.

Sure thing mate, you want the UK one where you can send in your side panel?
I just need you to set up your trust account. Not sure if you can set one up yet or not but try clicking trust next to where quote is on one of your posts. Or just post your email address if thats okay.
Also at the UK website I mentioned, if you brought the mini p180 from there you could have selected to install/do the window job before the case was sent out to you so you might want to check that out.

From photos that i have seen like the one above, the "white" looks a bit different to what i would expect. I wouldn't mind a sort of "iPod white".
But I am more than happy with my gun metal grey one with the black internals which looks great.

Great stuff, would be nice to revive this thread.
I still havent got around to upgrading my hardware so thats still the same because I just got a Macbook.
Nice setup mate. 
Yeah well, honestly, if i were to upgrade case again, i would probably go with a05 and get some new bits for my PC. But the Antec is still a nice case but some of the "features" are starting to annoy me a bit.
The gunmetal one is the black one...?
As far as I am aware there is only the gunmetal/black one and a white one.
Things like the bottom chamber, which can be a bit of a squeeze - especially since I have a HDD and DVD drive down there with the PSU. Its not too bad, you just need to make sure you know where you want to route the wires...SATA drives are a must as my old IDE drive with its rounded IDE cable was a bit tight.
Oh right. On a competitors site theres a black one and a gunmetal for sale. Priced differently too.
No idea mate, where is this from exactly?
With the power supply location being at the bottom, would you have the psu fans pointing upwards or downwards?
I have mine pointing up but the PSU sits on some little feet so either way its getting enough air.
It's a DFI LAN Party carrying strap. Though you don't usually keep it on when your not taking it out and about.
Update! 
Spent a few hours tidying things up and installing Windows 7 other day.

Ugh, yeah I really should know better not to venture into GD.
Might ask 1 but haven't done anything yet.
Anyway - back on topic. Thanks, basically the Apple logo was just a sticker...the black padding it is on I used to cover up the bottom section of case and the excess cable clutter from the PSU.
EDIT: Added setup pic below.

Finally upgraded yesterday. Now have Asus Rampage III and i7 2.80ghz Bloomfield, 6gb corsair tri channel ram.
Not a new case but one hell of a parts upgrade for me.
Gone from a E6600 stock on a generic MSI board with 2gb ddr2.
Can't wait to get playing.
