Retro computer case - amiga, atari st style ; kickstarter

[Wrath Of Khan]

There is a kickstarter campaign running to fund a retro styled computer case for modern computer systems. Its called the x-500. It harks back to the atari st, amiga, sinclair days.

Lot of kickstarter campaigns recently, still here's the linkhttp://www.kickstarter.com/projects/505470364/the-x500-plus-computer-case

I've seen this before from a link on the forum somewhere.

I was very interested as it promised accurate Amiga AGA emulation at full speed.  The FPGA board did anyway.

All I want is an AGA Minimig or similar.

^^^^^yeah i posted about it here before. The fpga board will fit inside this case.the fpga arcade is progressing very well.

That is kitch, not retro. Chicklet keyboard with windos decal on the superbuttons and "silent" 40mm and 50mm fans? Not for me.

235£ + at least 25£ for shipping? Wheres the apple logo?

the glossy look is just ugly and the white version looks is even worse!

Have to admit I'm not keen, just the Amiga side of things attracted me.
