Was wondering what any of you thought of the Hadron Air? £150 seems a lot. but you get a 500W Gold PSU that costs £100 anyway (it's an FSP unit).
 
I've seen some brilliant builds for this case, e.g. Golden Nugget at oc.net. But for me personally I prefer a brushed aluminium or white case.

Could do with modular features such removable hard drive cage without having to drill out rivets. And included 4 pin fans to begin with.

Wonder if design would benefit from an inverted motherboard so graphics card is at top instead of heating up power supply.

I have to say, the temps have impressed me. Reaching 60 on GPU and 70 on CPU with the stock cooler.
