Quest for the pink PC case

Postby Neo-Rio » Tue May 27, 2003 2:09 pm

I'm looking for a pink PC case somewhere in Japan, but am having stuff all luck finding one available. Micro ATX would be nice too. Nobody really markets PC cases to be "kawaii" and that really sucks when chicks I know want custom PCs.

The ONLY pick case which looks remotely kawaii is this one I found on the net....

http://www.pccase.com/products/AT577.html

...and then it's mostly white anyway.

But to get one like that in Micro ATX IN JAPAN would be great.
Any ideas on where to look?

A-top used to make a variety of colors, but their site now says they only do blue. However, another site Gentech PC Store has some of their older ones. They have one listed for $5, but I'd email and find out if that's a whole case (maybe on some obscene closeout) or just a faceplate.

Picture of blue case on this page: Blue

Pink (purple-esque) shown on this one: Pink

I hope you find what you're looking for. :)

I just ordered one of the blue ones. UPS ground is about ten bucks USD, I imagine higher for shipping to Japan.. No idea..

Thanks for the site, it's not in Japan, but it appears that the mini tower can't handle a P4.... (or it that just because of the PSU it ships with? Form factor shouldn't be an issue...)

Thanks for the site anyway. That PC looks a lot cuter than the other mid-tower link I posted.

If I can't get a cute case, I'm considering getting one of those ASUS kit mini-towers and painting it pink......... but that's just not the same, is it?

Failing that, I should start up a small business catering to a niche market of women wanting cute looking PCs that fit their interior design requirements......... :P (or did they all buy imacs?)

Any good car paint shop will put a coat of Mary Kay Pink or Barbie Pink on a case.

Use social engineering, and ask them to shoot WHENEVER the next pink car comes through the shop. Years ago I had my Mac SE done for free in Candy Apple Red with orange and yellow flames.

On closer inspection, it seems they have done seisan-shuuryou on the bright pink one!!! Maybe they have some in stock, but now I'm ticked off cause it's so hard to get a cute case.........!

Pimp-daddy and boy-wingman take ride back to the pimpin'-pad in the pimp-mobile:

Back at the pimp-pad, they try and decode a secret message from his arch nemesis, the riddled-wth-his-own-gender-man

So they pull out the pimp-computer to translate the secret message:

To be continued..... same pimpin'-time, same pimpin'-channel
