Sounds like the case I bought yesterday branded CompUSA.  Except with a 
corporate account (all you need is a business card to set it up, and 
then pay by cash or plastic) I got it for $22.  It looks just like my 
JVC receiver when the glass door is shut.  I made the mistake of hooking 
up the HDD LED though, and ended up covering it with a piece of black 
tape until I get around to removing it from the entertainment center 
again so I can open it back up ;-)
