I have 3 Antec cases at home (a SX830 and two KS382s) and used to build almost exclusively with Antec cases until a year ago when I switched to AOpen cases. I find the Antec cases to be very good quality with some nice features and the Antec power supply is a plus. But I did get tired of having to carry the heavy SX635, SX830 or XS1030 cases when delivering the computers. The KS382 case is lighter but only come with a 250 watt PSU and not readily available anymore. I found the AOpen H600 series cases fit my needs and came with good AOpen 300 watt power supplies (rebadged Fortron Source PSUs). But the Antec cases were really nice to work with and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again if a customer requested one.
