Supermicro top-of-the-line model is a close runner up

Don't get me wrong... I like my Supermicro alot. Its plenty sturdy but nothing slids out..not the mobo tray or hdd trays. And I'm running ribbons to two SCSI channels, as well as 3 IDE hdd and two CD-drives ( I need to take one out that I'm not using) and wiring to the full compliment of fans. So..Wily is probably right that any case would get congested. Although the Calf.PC less so.. for sure.

Go ahead.. get the Calif PC..I'd love to hear about it <gg>

Hey..its only money.. and they are beautiful..

EDIT: The Supermicro includes a 300w Sparkle PS.. which is considered pretty ok

I need a 6' vga cable extension on a 19" monitor. My local cable store says I need his $20 triple shielded cable. Buy.com has a Cables To GO 6'er for $2.72 which is described just as 'shielded'. The CAbles To Go cable is actually $8.95 on CTG website.

But do think triple shielding is really required? I don't mind paying for whats needed but I do mind paying for whats not needed.
