This may not be precisely what you're looking for, in that I don't think
it has infrared (though a streamzap sitting externally fits the bill for
me). And the plastic faux metal front is slightly cheesy close-up. And
it doesn't support slot DVDs. And doesn't have a video panel.
All negatives having been covered, I really like this case. Air flow is
very very well designed. It is quiet, and stays pretty cool. For
example, my athlon 3200-based frontend with disk is currently running
about 84F in a 79F room.

I'd read a rumour that a higher-end case was going to follow this one
... you might poke around and see if any new information is circulating.
