Freak,
Google only returns German and Japanese sites for that Soltec case.
And not many of those.
Looks like it might be hard to find....

I think it's a mod.
Parts of the frame do look like it was intended to be covered by metal plating.
Now the bright side:
When they can mod it, so can you ! :lol: :01:

go to soltek's home page (here (http://www.soltek.com.tw)) and choose the model u want. you cant buy it from them directly as a consumer but what you can do is go here (http://www.soltek-computer.de/soltek/content/inquiry.php) and tell them some bullshit company name and say ur doing a special order and only need 1.
modding shouldnt be too hard lol...
actually, im planning on getting one of their mini-itx mobos for use with one of my SFF pcs. (this 1 is not the same 3-bay 1 that im describing lol). but yea. im not sure if it will work but its worth a try lol.
also when providing ur address if ur in an apt. give it as suite XYZ rather than apt. XYZ that way it will actually sound like a business.

it does look like a mod. get some clear plastic or fiberglass, work the dremel, and put it in. very impressive mod

More specs on the system (http://images.tweaktown.com/imagebank/news_EQ3801.doc)
I wonder how they drive an AMD64 from a 250Watts PSU :blink:
Look for Shuttlepc

Thanx zed but the shuttle look isn't really my style...
also is says it uses an amd64 but my question is do i have to use an amd64? cause i'd like to use an amd64 but won't have the money at first for that chip can i use an athlon xp or not? I'm thinking probably not but im sure someone here knows for sure...

lol but it just isn't the same as the amd 64 :lol:
cause i think the a64 ver is better and if i go with the axp instead of the a64 i'll also have to upgrade the mobo later so maybe i'll just figure out a way to get the a64 version are there any places on the net that has a good price for the a64 cpu
