True the cases are much better than others around, but what has annoyed me is that Tiny have copied the case's aswell, which doesnt make it look as "special" anymore!

Yep - it cuts the power to both ups systems in case of fire. There is allso a very speciel smoke detector above the systems.

It might seem a bit OTT but since I work in the trade and get most bits cheap (or free) it would be silly not to use them...

It's the only one I've found so far that works over my dual monitor setup. The far left screen is plugged into my router - also has a nice digital tv card so I use it as a pvr too
