You'll probably get lots of responses on this one...but I have to say that this thing is great looking on top of my TV. Half the time, people don't even notice it's there, but when the do, they always comment on if my clock is correct. When I tell them that not only am I sure it's correct, it's syncronized to the Naval Observatory. If the SB were a more industrial design, it would look out of place.
Plus, I don't feel bad that I've discarded one of the cases because I mounted another squeezebox in a wall. If I want a more industrial design, I'll do it myself. Now where was that paper towel tube...I know I had one around here somewhere....lol Paul >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/16/05 11:18 AM >>> Don't get me wrong - I am not here to bash or inflame. SB has a great display, great software, a pretty good UI, and a healthy fanatical base, but the hard truth is the case needs to evolve - someday. IMHO, it needs to happen sooner rather than later. Perhaps the primary goal of Slim is to do the development and they are waiting until the product reaches a certain milestone before they invest in a better, nicer case. I would encourage them to step back and start plotting the trajectory for the case design where people are bowled over. Since I have been messing around with the SB project, I have seen slim server go to 5.4, which is a huge advance. I have seen the display improve substantially with the graphical display. It's time that they up the ante - spend a little cash on some industrial design and make a case that doesn't look like a refuge from 1970.
