17. nmedia HTPC200: Nice case, unattractive doors
This light aluminum case puts a multimedia card reader that can handle all common card types next to a nice front panel VFD display. Behind a swing-down cover, you'll find not only USB and Firewire ports, but also various AV ports. Specifically, this means an S-Video port, coax composite video jack, and standard coax/RCA stereo jacks.
An internal connector cable can be used to bridge input or output ports from TV, graphics or sound cards inside the case as needed. The insides of this case are made of steel, and its interior is easy accessible and can accommodate up to three hard drives. The side panels on the case incorporate plenty of ventilation slits to help conduct heat outside the case. Both case fans, designed to exhaust heat dissipated from system components, work nicely with the VFD's built-in fan controller.
