You know, companies out there like Directron are great because you can
browse through their case selection, and they almost always have a 
selection of alternate power supplies that may be purchased at the same
time as the case, and then you don't pay $10 for that crap psu.  
I got my mythpc black case there for $30 and I am VERY pleased 
that I put a top notch power supply in, a nice case for a good price and
a nice power supply have made the myth project a dream to work on.
