"The LANBOY has similar design characteristics as many of their other cases, mainly the front grill and door. The finish is top notch and the grey paintjob is beautiful. Perhaps the best thing about the LANBOY is that it's extremely light, making it easy to tote to LAN parties. "

I like how the carrying straps come with it. Considering that they probably cost a dime to make I dont see why more compaines don't include them with their cases. Thats definitely something that would catch my eye when shopping for a new case.

i bought a carrying strap for mine and it makes it very easy to transport. i got the thermaltake badboy seen here (http://www.thermaltake.com/accessories/xaserbag.htm). although, if i had known, i would have gone for a case that offered the strap or the DFI lanparty mobo that also comes with a strap. of course neither of the free ones look as cool as the thermaltake one.

i dont really want to pay that much for just a bunch of straps to carry my case. i'd rather just build my own.

i considered making my own, but after looking at the higher quality nylon, straps, buckles and considering i would need a heavy duty industrial sewing machine to lash it all together, the price of the thermaltake one was pretty much the same as the cost of building my own, since it was made with very high quality parts.

i had some free nylon strapping that would have worked well, but it was so tough that i would have had to hand stitch it and i'm not much of a tailor.

i made mine out of the climbing webbing at REI. i just sewed and melted them together at the right spots and attached buckles and pull-ties. made the whole thing for only about $15 and it works just as well.
