As far back as I can remember people have been
fascinated with how things tick. Does anyone remember the visible V8, it basically was a
plastic model that after finished you could turn a crank and watch all
the inner workings of a V8 Engine, you could see everything from the
crankshaft moving the pistons on the compression and exhaust strokes
and the cam moving the lifters and valves. This was a great way to
explain how an internal combustion engine worked and it was cool as
hell. Today I will not be reviewing the visible V8, but if anyone
knows where I can get one let me know. Today we
will be looking at the BeanTech BT-84 acrylic case. I have wanted an
acrylic case ever since I saw one for the first time at a computer
trade show in the bay area a few years ago. I was ecstatic when BeanTech told me they where sending me one. Everyday I was waiting
impatiently for the UPS guy to bring me my ultimate case window. |

This is the second review I have done for BeanTech and I was very
impressed with the first case I looked at, the
Igloo2 Aluminum case. I was hoping
to see the same quality in this acrylic case as I saw in the aluminum
case that I had already reviewed. Well after having my lan box
installed in this case for a few weeks I have to say that if your
looking for a great high quality case, BeanTech cases are built with
quality in mind not profit margin. I don't think I have seen a better
built acrylic case. Some of the biggest problems that I have seen in
acrylic cases are not included with this case. For example, this
case comes already assemble unlike some of its counterparts that you
have to assemble yourself. Also, this one comes with chrome
pieces instead of gold, which I have found do not look as good when
the case is completed. |
