Thermaltake's Xaser V V7000D WinGo - Nearly 10 years old and still solid.

In an industry where a product's life cycle is at most a year, it is rare to find something that lasted. The consumers not only expects change, they crave it. They know that their $1000 dollars computer will be junk in a few years and only a few components can be salvage. I had the same mentality until I brought a Thermaltake Xaser V.

It was more expensive than the other retail PC Cases but after looking at the specs, I couldn't pass it up. I brought a AMD 3000+ Barton, 9800 Pro with an Asus motherboard, that was nearly 10 years ago. 

To give an idea of how durable this tank is, here is a stock picture of the case.
