Other case designers could take some inspiration from this case (as well as others: 002 Blackbird, Mac Pro). Hopefully in the future it will not take many thousands of dollars to afford a case this well-engineered and intuitive. I really like the system used here for hard drives. :) if only it didn't cost $6500 base.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jimmy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 11th 2008 3:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Voodoo Omen gets examined from the inside]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</guid><description><![CDATA[I can't wait until SATA cabling is able to be daisy-chained.  I think once the SATA spec reaches 1 GB/sec throughput, this will be a possibility.  I also like the idea of having power and data on the same cable.  Both of these ideas will definitely reduce cable-mess inside your case.  To this end, (and while I'm dreaming) I'd also like to see EXTERNAL and modular videocards being offered for high-end users, a la eSATA devices.  That way, you won't cause a cooling problem and power problem with your computer.  It will have its own internal PSU and cooling solution.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Silverfrog]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 12th 2008 8:22AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Voodoo Omen gets examined from the inside]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</guid><description><![CDATA[that is one gorgeous hunk of computer i must admit]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bufsabre]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 11th 2008 3:43PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Voodoo Omen gets examined from the inside]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</guid><description><![CDATA[(howl) ..  that's a nice piece of circuitry in there !!! keep the robot p@rn coming ...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Krush]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 11th 2008 3:46PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Voodoo Omen gets examined from the inside]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</guid><description><![CDATA[Dude, its $7000!!!! seriously!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Limp Noodle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 11th 2008 3:52PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Voodoo Omen gets examined from the inside]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</guid><description><![CDATA[its good to know that the inside is more sophisticated than the outside<br>cause if it wasnt, you would be forkin over 7 grand for a lot of aluminum<br>instead you forkin over 7 grand for a lot of aluminum and silicon and gold and copper<br>which is a little bit better]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Some Kid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 11th 2008 3:54PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Voodoo Omen gets examined from the inside]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/11/voodoo-omen-gets-examined-from-the-inside/</guid><description><![CDATA[That loop is a bit discontinuous, does it exit the case and then re-enter?
