Installation
Since there is plenty of room inside the case, we had very little trouble installing our test bed into the X-Navigator. The total time for installation of the motherboard with CPU and heatsink fan, the VGA card, HDD, and power supply took about 10 minutes. Even though all of the components needed to be screwed in, we had no trouble getting a screwdriver into any part of the case.

The ability to remove the HDD cages added to the simplicity of installing HDDs, since the need to remove the right side panel was eliminated.

Perhaps the second paragraph on the first page should be italicized. It's not obvious at first that it's clipped from the company line. For a second it seemed like the article was being written by Aspire.Locut0s - Tuesday, October 26, 2004 - link

There seems to be a picture missing on page 2.Great looking case. Would be perfect if it had:
A. Tool-less design (for drives & expansion cards.
B. Quiter fans (and have the front intake be 120mm).
C. A more elaborate side panel. Something with an unusual shaped window and maybe etched, UV sensetive design/picture.
D. Maybe a 'No PS' option for about $120.
