Who made the case?  My wife and I might want to start carrying them.  
We're a few weeks away from launching an "all things HTPC" store selling 
pieces parts and full systems.

And there in lies the rub.  What is and is not a lot of money varies 
from person to person.  There are a wide variety of folks building / 
using MythTV, the guys hooking their boxes up to 2k+ TVs and 2k home 
sound systems don't mind paying for the best.

Though it is kinda nuts that the case is the single most expensive 
component of my HTPC.
