Question Help Choose Case?

I know PC case is a matter of personal preference but I can't decide. If I could afford the features of the two listed cases in a Silver Lian case w/ a width No Greater than 7.5", well in the future.
But for now I cant afford anything else right now and won't live with all piano black. This is a second PC just for production. I am not ready to retire my 1st build PC100, it will function as file server and surf when mobo or cpu die i will put drives into second PC... i think. The listed cases is my idea of balnace between price, function, and looks? Go figure.

What PSU should I get to fit into either of the following cases?

1. Super Lanboy $39. + shp + PSU

2. COOLER MASTER Centurion 534 RC-534-SKN2-GP Black / Silver Aluminum & Mesh bezel / SECC Chassis ATX Mid Tower Computer Case - Retail 49. + shp + PSU

Fixed your second link nightsky. The forum had truncated it.

Either one is a good choice. I'd lean toward the CoolerMaster though. The LanBoy can be a bit flimsy.

Its a Super Lanboy. Does that make a difference? *I do need to decide and order tonite because I have an New un-opened CPU and Mobo that I have check to see if they work before return time runs out.

Finally decided..

Did a search in this forum on Super Lanboy and thanks to you Alaron for the link to a great review by a Mr. F... something or another. lol Case looks like fun but the no dust filter made me choose Cooler Master's Centurion 534 w/o PSU. Wound up with ePower ZU550 for $55. Thanks
