New MacPro Case Design?

^sorry *flame*

youll never see Johnny Ive design something like that. lights, clear sides and pointless fans are for home built computer mods and gaming machines.

True. :)

I wouldn't mind if he took a few clues from Lian Li though, specifically the internal configurations. ;)

For example:

V2100a02s.jpg


5.25" drive bay (External) 7
3.5" drive bay (External) 1 (5.25 w/ converter)
3.5" drive bay (Internal) 12
Expansion Slot 7

Just one idea of what a real workstation should look like internally. :eek: :p
 
^^ The Cheap, flexible metal used inside is crap, always makes me scared I'll get a paper-cut. Well, not a real paper cut, but that kind of slice.

I'll never understand the need to display the guts on those ugly things with LED lights to boot. The MacPro has the most gorgeous inside ever but I'm okay hiding it behind aluminum. And I'm pretty sure it works in the dark, so no LED illumination support necessary.

Which case are referring? :confused:

The Armor, or the Lian Li?
 
I would like to see the ports and power button moved to the top front corner instead of the bottom left.

But id hate for it to look like a space ship.
 
the Blackbird looks very nice but its simply not a Mac style. more for PC gamer enthusiasts.

the Omen is more Mac like but still its very blocky with sharp edges and no grill holes. plus i have no idea what that screen thing is… the Mac Pro def wont have that. plus it looks even taller and heavier than the Mac Pro.
 
Just imagine the Blackbird in aluminum and black though. :) I didn't think a cheesegrater was a Mac style either.

Yep, that's a miniature screen on the front of the Voodoo case. All the cables plug into the top underneath through the back.
