Please read my above post where I asked that you take your conversation. It has nothing to do with this news thread.

Ok, here's my suggestion for the Amy05 facia:



It is a cheap solution as you just need a standard cave and the new front plate to get a nice looking case

What do you think?

So, I think Troika still needs to clarify here. What I _think_ they want is a logo/design/images to be screened onto the faceplate of an existing mini or micro-atx case, so it's up to you what case to use as the template.

I do not think they're talking about making a custom case....could be wrong, but think about the $.

at all and troika

I would like to see a nice frontpanel with Amiga logo in a modern design.
As case I would like to have an Aspire X-QPACK mini-itx case. Available in red/black, blue/black (my favorite), silver/black, yellow/black and other colors.

Aspire USA homepage: http://www.aspireusa.net/category.php?cid=41

See the German site from VESALIA

or an english review here

@mbilla- well, the neon/glass/plastic is gay (same opinion on cars with neon), but finally, someone makes a shuttle type case with a HANDLE! *sigh* It only took how many years for them to realize- hey, you can take it with you. Wow, what about a handle?

For that alone, I like it

I am no artist designer but this is what I would believe a suitable case. I doubt I will be a winner but it is called trying.]

Nice design, simple but different.

Personally I would love to see an updated vesion of the A1200 case, in black/grey with a slimmed down look, slot loading cd-writer where the floppy drive would have been etc. Although guess it would be too expensive to happen.

The Anitec Aria case with the Amiga logo scribed on the front (instead of Aria) and red power leds instead of blue would be preety cool.

Thats quite a nice case, foody. I would prefer it on the horizontal plane myself though.

But then again .... Add a built in SD card reader in one of those top bays..

Trouble is... How to .. Amy-ise that case ?
