You may also be surprised at how hot your components will get and how many power problems you'll have.
The concept is neat, but I dread to think about the heat. grounding and static issues of using a plastic case...
The components no longer have a large chunk of metal bolted to them for aid in head dissipation.
The components no longer have a common earth/ground and 0V for each component may no longer be 0V - until it gets to the respective i/o controller - probably your mobo.
You have just put $n000 of sensitive electronic components into a static trap - what happens the first time you shuffle the case on a nylon carpet - what goes bang! first?
As you say - a very cool concept, but one, I feel, that is doomed.
