Retro computer case: X500 Plus
Loriano 'TheDaddy' Pagni, who some years ago offered self-developed Minimig cases, now presented an all-in-one-case called "X500 Plus" which is inspired by Amiga 500 (Youtube-video).
Pagni's case originally was developed for his Sam 460 but can be used with each Mini-ITX or Flex-ATX motherboard which is up to 58 millimeters high. Due to the use of an internal power supply unit ("PicoPSU"), the power of the included hardware should be lower than 160 W.
In the case additional to the motherboard and the power supply unit, two or three 2,5"-harddrives or Solid State Drives, a 3,5" multi card reader as well as a Slimline DVD drive can be used.
Pagni at least needs 50 advance bookings to be able to produce the cases. He points out that for the assembling a certain accurateness and experience is required to to guarantee sufficient ventilation.
If you are interested in the case you can write to the developer under amigarulez@hotmail.com. Currently minor change requests can be taken into account.
Soon some pictures will be added to Pagni's private website.
