One disadvantage of silver cases is...

...all the accessories nowadays are only made for black cases. I've been trying to find a bay adapter for a laptop slot loading drive and all I can find is the black version

Black is the new silver.

Or should that be the other way around.

I remember about ten years ago my brother wanted a black tv but couldn't find one anywhere.. because 'they don't fit people's lifestyles' and now everything's black again.
Soon we'll be going wood panelled again.

crap

silver pc cases look excellent, it looks real quality, black is way too dark for me, i prefer the 1980's beige ....

but i also quite like Gold Anodize..... that looks totally awesome

buy a black one and get it powder coated

buy a black one and get it powder coated

Is that something I can do myself or do I need to send it away somewhere? Can both plastic and alu be coated?

my pc upstairs is indeed a 1995 Beige case ........... mind you; the internals have been updated about a 100 times

it's not even scratched.... not a single mark on it, the front is thick heavy plastic....i wonder why it's so much stronger than my modern cases, because i cant see the Lian lasting 14 years..... no bloody way, more like only 4 years; just like my Thermaltake

but this old heap beside me looks as good as new......most odd!

Ally would look totally brilliant Anodized........ it would look awesome in gold ... but a bit blingy.........a bit like ``need for speed pro street``
