Wow. That looks like a pretty sweet case! It'll probably cost me an arm, a leg, and my soul though.
And I can't help but be baffled by it's extensive use of 80mm fans. :\
That fall case review sounds great though! I can't wait. I hope that case reviews get larger at THG. I love them.
Back to the window though... I'd rather just have that honeycombed window in my own case. Oh well. By the time I save up enough money for modding my case how I'd like maybe a good honeycombed mod kit will be out there.
I'm allowed to be hopeful... right? :\
Actually, maybe painting a normal acrylic window with a EM layer wouldn't be so bad. I just don't have a good workshop set up for anything like that yet so I'm kind of hesitant. Well, plus I'm not entirely sure how I'd go making the conductive layer between the window and the case. :\
I have to wonder though... I mean if this honeycomb concept works why wouldn't an aluminum screen mesh or even chickenwire work? :\
Here's a crazy thought: Get some of that aluminum screen mesh for fixing damaged window screens in your home from a local hardware store. Get a standard window mod kit. Cut the mesh out to be four inches larger than the window on each side. Then fold the excess mesh back in along the main piece. Mount the kit with the mesh pressed against the window on the inside of the case. Then when the window is mounted bend the excess mesh around the rubber on the inside of the case. Then just JB Weld the mesh to the inside of the panel. Viola, a no fuss, no muss mostly transparent conductive screen on the inside of the window.
If honeycombing the window works I don't see why that wouldn't. :\ For some reason that sounds too easy to work though. It'd be nice if someone who had an EMI testing facility would prove mods like this.
I wonder if I could buy a replacement side panel from Antec. I'd be a lot more inclined to mod my case if I knew I could easily revert back in case the EM shielded window didn't work. I'll email Antec. Hopefully they're on the ball. I'll let you folks know.
Gee, now that's a ramble of a post! **ROFL**

Ah. What's it made of?
Soy.
Is that soy as in soylent green?</A>
