You can fit lots of modern hardware inside—and prop your monitor on top.
Meanwhile I’ve got a ryzen 7800/radeon 6800 system housed in a full sized beige tower that I’ve had since like 1998.
FINALLY! A return to sensible PC design!
…I’m going to put a raspberry pi inside.
Needs more stickers peeling off.
Has it got a turbo button that just switches a light on?
The turbo button actually slowed your PC down to be able to play old DOS games.
Be like my smart friend and put fridge magnets on it
Just keep in mind the longer you have one the yellower it gets
It’s a little too tongue in cheek with the faux disk Bays. I’d rather see something that takes the 80s asthetic but modernizes it a bit. Still a roomy easy to work on case that pays homage to the esthetic rather than kind of mocks it.
Yeah there was a lot of really nice design going on at the time. This looks like the discount cases from the early 90s clones.
I can sell you one with real floppy drives!
It’s really too bad they couldn’t have made the bay covers either plain or actually look like a floppy drive.
So close, and yet, so far.
If they’re removable, could just put actual floppy drives in.
EDIT: Oh, they’re flip-down drawer covers rather than fixed panels. Well, still might be removable.
A drawer option would’ve been sweet. I love my 5.25" drawer. Perfect for flash drives, dongles, extra screws, little screwdriver, or a hiding spot almost nobody would know is there.
Everything is removable with the right tools
All I have is a hammer. I was told in the early 90s that it’s Hammer time. I was never told of a ceasing of it being Hammer time.
No no no, it is in fact still hammer time, but there are 26 main types of hammer and countless subtypes
I mean even if you could remove them, the problem is that beige is not always the same beige: same problem you had 30 years ago.
The colors would never, at any point, remotely match the rest of the beige, and it’d be nice if a premium product that exists only for the aesthetics, would have just you know, done that last itty bitty little thing so it’d look right (from at least a distance) and be color matched.
Honestly the mismatching beiges just make it even more period correct. At least from how I remember them
Right??? Also you need a 13 inch monogrome green screen. Like the original game boy…except giant.
…what? 13 inches WAS giant back then.
I think big was 17 inches, but they were like 24 deep and 50lbs.
I bet USB c connections could fit in a floppy drive slot
The “and prop your monitor on top” thing: I kinda wish there were more modern PC cases that could stand being horizontal. Most are designed to be towers.
With this design you have a few fans closer to your ears. That will also sound retro. Not 100 percent convinced.
I always wanted a beige tower big enough to need wheels.
It’s just not quite yellow enough, esp. on 1 side where’s it’s been too close to a window… otherwise, yeah, bring back beige
That was the first thing I thought of, all the asymmetric yellowing from exposing the plastic flame retardants to UV light.
With a preserved “shadow” of the keyboard
I’ll wait for the beige tower
AAAHHH
I NEEEEED IITTT
Just being able to fit a modern GPU inside makes it top-tier.
Oh no, I was really happy having thought we had moved past the beige 😬
But why into blue LEDs?
Because blue LEDs are a MIRACLE, dammit!
Black is the new beige.
NGL, that is pretty damn cool. I love desktop layouts like that too :)
