Hi Fernando,

Take a look at our docs if you haven't...
Jetway NF9HQL-525 Dual Core Atom
http://doc.astlinux.org/userdoc:board_jetway_nf9hql-525

If you don't need PCIe expansion, the "M350 Universal Mini-ITX Case" is 
inexpensive at about $40
http://www.logicsupply.com/products/m350

The M350 case is quite sturdy, lots of holes for ventilation (and dust) pro 
(and con).

The nice thing about mini-ITX boards is they are standard, and can be mixed and 
matched with different cases.  Particularly with boards like the NF9HQL-525 
with onboard power, no internal case 20-pin ATX power supply is needed.

Specific to the new Jetway NF9HQL-525, the Jetway representative told me this:
--
"Currently included in the box is the standard height IO shield like all boards 
have, we will also be included a low profile Thin Mini-ITX IO shield in the 
future, probably in about 2 months. This will allow the board to be used in low 
profile mini ITX chassis. You can see a Thin Mini-ITX size IO shield included 
with this Intel board."
http://www.logicsupply.com/products/dn2800mt
--
Therefore when the low profile Thin Mini-ITX IO shield is available in the 
future, a low profile case could be used.

Back to your question, if you don't own the M350 case, IMHO for $40 it is good 
to have around when testing, breaking-in, and production use of mini-ITX 
boards.  If a better case catches your eye in the future, you can upgrade.
