I think I have finally decided on this case (the Rosewill)

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811147153

as it's the only one I've found that will fit and has a drive bay configuration that will work for me. Plus I can get it from Amazon and I have a $25 gift certificate coming (and Subsim will get a little something). Although I might get this first instead:

http://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-TMC...=1081UJTDTV61F

since it will allow me to get rid of the surge processor with all the plugs sticking out that I use to turn on the monitor, speakers, DSL modem, etc. It's up on the shelf above the computer for easy access but is very unsightly no matter how I try to hide most of it with well-placed knickknacks. And it makes external cord/cable management a small nightmare. With those things plugged in somewhere else and still powered on/off with one master switch, I can put that ugly SP under the desk where it belongs and just use it for the computer or even get a small UPS unit for that instead.
