For the Silver and White crowd there was the P-150
For the Silver and Black crowd there was the SOLO
For the All Black utilitarian crowd there was the Atlas 550

And now for the Silver and Blue crowd ... the Sonata 500

I'm surprised they haven't done a black on black Solo/p150. Kind of like the Sonata with the matte/plastic finish and the glossy.

Personally I would like to see gunmetal all around like the P182. For looks the P182 is my favorite case.

The Sonata Designer 500 has been up for a while, though this is just a blue accent on the white model. There was show photo with different accents, Red, Green, Blue.

I just wish they would change the case so one didn't have to mod it to fit a 8800gtx in it.

Just a SOLO/P150 with a different color scheme.

Yawn.

Change a good concept to accomodate an oversized graphics card? Bah. Buy your P18x if you want the hot-pants setup.

Is it an American tradition to have numbers on every model name? It's just "Atlas" and "Designer" in Europe.

I concur...black on black would look cool, plus would've saved me a bit of work (I had to paint the front of mine...)

Post pics of it if you can. Would be interested to see it. I tried years ago painting a case, didn't turn out too good though. Most definitely my fault though.

i've got a SOLO and i will paint it IF i keep it. i want a P180B but i just missed all the discounts and won't pay full price just on principle

lol

i imagine if you tape it off well, it shouldn't be too hard to get a good paint job...

i really like how they went with the 80+ cert earthwatt PSU's in all their new enclosures comming out. The fan in those PSU's is very quiet.

And the next SOLO is ...

And the next SOLO is ...

I want gunmetal.
