You won't find too many cases with a fan controller included but you could look into getting a nice case on newegg and then heading over to frozencpu.com to get a nice fan controller.

Just guessing which case you had picked based on price, but it took me about two minutes to find this one searching with Yahoo.

Thermaltake Case

Looks like a decent enough place according to Reseller Ratings

You can probably find the one you wanted by searching around some. You may pay a bit more to have it quickly, or wait and save a few bucks. Personally, I don't like to change after I've made my mind up on an item. When I do change I either run across a deal that's too good to pass up, or I feel like I've settled for less than I wanted.

The ETA on all of the sold-out thermaltake cases at newegg is Today (9-29-03) or tomorrow. Might as well wait until tomorrow, and see what is available. May show up tomorrow, but possibly on Wednesday.

Looks good to me, although you may prefer to buy Windows XP Pro instead...
