Okay, so you're looking for the right case to mod, well here is a good guide to get you started!

Mini/Micro Tower "I think I'll call him... Mini Me." -Dr. Evil

The micro tower is great for those who need desk-space, don't plan on doing much upgrading, and think microscopic art is really cool.

Mid-Tower "I never met a mod I didn't like" -NOT John Wayne

The mid-tower is probably the most widely-used case. It offers expansion capabilities, offers some mod room, and will usually not take over your desk.

Full Tower "Your helmet... it's so BIG!" -Spaceballs

The full-tower is P-C's Playhouse (Although you won't find this host doing naughty things in a theatre). The Full tower allows for all kinds of mods, drives, RAID setups, and oh-so-much-more!

FILE SERVER "And when you die, they can bury you in it!!!" -Ruthless People

Okay, there are file servers... and then there are FILE SERVERS! Technically, a mid or full tower can be called a file server, but the actual deal is where it's a kind of half-assed mainframe case instead of a personal case. This is the kind of case a business will use 'cause most people don't have the room, need, or even cash (these suckers are expensive) to spend this much on a case. If you browse through Pimprig's gallery, you'll find a couple of these babies that someone modded the crap out of. They stand alone amongst the others, that's for sure!

home made cases are the best

well let see yours noob....

well ds i have all of the above cases and i must say that the full tower / server cases are a lot to handel but you are right about the modding possibilities of them.
mid towers are definately the most commonly used cases around, as for mini cases, i don't see to many floating aroud, but the ones i have seen that were modded looked really nice.

i think that server cases and minis are under represented in the modding community. probably due to most peoples lack of vision and or fund$. i am currently working on a server tower and i can honestly say that the amount of room provided is incredible. i really have to use some thought as to where i am putting every thing and what i am going to use for mods to make it look clean and no too empty at the same time.

BIG Cases, Yeah! I like room to get both hands, my head, and a six pack inside the case when I work on them.

I like mid size. I dunno why.. i just do. i know they don't have much room but thats ok i have small hands anyway =P

I have a midi tower myself, but I do think there is something beautiful about a small case... very artistic. Maybe thats just me though....

I like a full tower... mostly so I can look at a furniture salesman and say, "Look... no way in hell is my rig gonna fit in that so called "Computer Desk". (jk)

Actually, I like my Antec SX1030... nothin' like space, airflow, and attractive to boot to get my vote.

Dark, I like them so big that they are a piece of furniture.
