Introduction:::...
Today
I'm reviewing the third of four cases sent over by guys
over at AOne Distribution, and this time it's one unashamedly
aimed at the gamer.
Christened
the X-Dreamer II, today's test subject is manufactured by
California based Aspire International Corp, a relatively
new company who've been around since just 1999 but who since
then have made quite a name for themselves, helped partly
by the success of their flagship X-Navigator range of cases.
I
mentioned that this case is aimed at the gamer but that's
perhaps a little unfair. Aspire have chosen to add enough
eye candy to win over gamers and LAN party-goers, but I
think the look is probably slick enough to appeal to all
manner of users, not just gamers.
