Check out the news OcUK have some new HTPC and tower Antec cases in stock!

Some very nice ones; I know the fusion for the money is a very nice buy, especially if you have HiFi Seps gear.

I'm not liking the new lanboy

Good job i bought an old one

Neoni · 29 Jun 2006 at 02:38

what in gods name is that new lanboy trying to achieve.

Yewen · 29 Jun 2006 at 02:42

New Lanboy....

Thats a old Lanboy....

Unless I am missing something, that Antec Lanboy has been around for a while and is not new.

Solo
Fusion
P160 returns

Thats all I can see that have just come up.

benjo · 29 Jun 2006 at 02:43

Never seen it before

New to me..

Anywho, if it's older, why's it got a price tag more than double the super lanboy? :eek:

Yewen · 29 Jun 2006 at 02:46

I have seen a Lanboy in 2002, so it is getting on.

Do not ask the question why is the Lanboy expensive, other way round.

Why is the Super Lanboy so cheap?

(Bargain!)

Cuz it has a 350W PSU?

Because.

Nope not really, check the price of the Antec SLK1650B and it is not that.

Not many old Lanboys around thats why, NSK1300 and the Fusion look very nice.

p4radox · 29 Jun 2006 at 12:35

Blimey, the NSK1300 crept up without me noticing. Looks pretty much the same as the Aria with a few minor changes. They could have improved on the old design so much, but instead they've just renamed the Aria, removed the front firewire port and added a useless top vent that won't do anything.

The 4400 and 2400 look to be the best new additions.

PinkFloyd · 29 Jun 2006 at 12:43

That "new" lanboy. ???

They've priced themselves out of the market here. And it looks like every other friggin antec case ever (with a few exceptions)

The Lanboy is not new, 2002!

Its not worth considering for any money really, just forget its even there as its been up for a while.

Messiah Khan · 29 Jun 2006 at 12:46

They all look pretty fugly to me, excpet maybe the Antec Fusion HTPC Case - 430HE Watt PSU (CA-060-AN). Would still go for a Silverstone instead though.

jellybeard999 · 29 Jun 2006 at 12:47

I was confused when people started saying new lanboy lol....

The Super Lanboy is the updated original Lanboy, which as Yewen says is circa 2002

They've also ditched the card reader for some reason. My Aria that I purchased about 2 months back had that top vent and your right it does next to nothing and just spoils the look of the top, should have got the users to help out with the re-design me thinks

The fusion looks really nice, good to see a HTPC case with 120mm colling fans. Also like the look of the Solo allthough it seems a little over priced and probably isn't going to do to well head to head with a certain Lian-Li case!

Yewen · 29 Jun 2006 at 13:38

The solo should be good (have not seen one yet) and will be a good choice probably for people who need to hold lots of hard drives yet can not afford something along the lines of the Eclipse.

Hence the quotion marks around "new" that were denoting sarcasm

Can't quite see why overclockers have started stocking that case :\

Yewen · 29 Jun 2006 at 14:45

It is not our position to question, we shall all just buy the PC7+ from them instead.

Or the Super Lanboy, both better for cheaper.

And sarcasm does not get through to me in text, and in person you would find me looking at you in disgust until I worked it out.
