    I'd love a mid-tover case with swapable front panel I/O and bays for optical drives; would've been the perfect product for Framework to make IMO.

      The mini's are the latest new hotness for desktop computing. I've been running a dirt cheap $90US, mini for 2 years now. It fits extremely well on my desk, just tucked in under the monitor leaving plenty of room for all the other tasks I do daily.

      Will it play the latest hot new video game? Nope. But it will run OnlyOffice, FreeCAD and FreeDoom just fine.

        They’d be competing with a bajillion other case makers. And I’m pretty sure there are already cases with what you ask (such as 5.25 bay mounted IO running off USB headers, at least).

        Like… I don’t really see what framework can bring making a case. Maybe it could be a super SFF mobo with a GPU bay, but that’s close to what they did here.

          It’s just not that unique compared to their laptops.

          This'll be a good sell for the useful idiot crowd that has been conditioned to think gaming laptops are the devil.

            There may be already such a case but you and me have never heard about it and it's probably by some chinese no-name brand.

            A proper metal mid-tower case with modular front panel I/O (using Framework's system with the USB-C converters) and modular optical drive/hard drive bays would be unique.
