Handmade ATX Gaming Case With Integated LCD

[Crashman]

There's a company claiming to be the first to produce an ATX gaming case with integrated display.

Many of us know that claim is BS.

Who was the company that was producing hand-made cases with integrated LCD about three or four years ago? Is the guy still in business? Does he still have a website?

That's a vague question now are you talking about something like this; http://www.spire-corp.com/computer-cases/tethys-sp2103b-s300w-pfc/

Or a case with an actual screen in it

Yes, there was a small manufacturer cranking out LAN-party cases with an LCD display side-panel a few years back and, thanks to Google's current "optimizations", it's probably buried on page 101057 of my search results (aka, unfindable).

Think "modder version" of this:

Hmmmmm sounds silly.. I mean why have a case with a screen? I use my screen between my laptop and my desktop, and I love that it's so easy to move. To be honest I don't see the point I have a BenQ 27" screen and it's so thin it hardly takes up any room.

However I do believe that the costs where to high as monitors have dropped the expense of a set up like that would make it unfeasible and in a market like computers it would have no chance of surviving... I have a great deal of product research behind me from the last 2 years and I have never seen or heard of it so I'd say it's well and truly dead

Just cover all areas, I'm aware of custom builds like that, ie you buy the screen and put it in yourself it's quite expensive though... Here's a link; http://www.inventgeek.com/Projects/LCDWindow/Overview.aspx

That's what this other company has, and they claim to be first, but guys who have been around a while have seen this before. It comes and goes as a concept for LAN party machines, and it's once again back as a "first". Because of that claim, I wanted to put a name to the predecessor.

Ok mate, I wouldn't be to worries the idea will die down when they realise that there's simply no demand

Most of the time it's just some guys that want to ruffle a few feathers by bringing topics like this up
