I would like to thank Glacialtech for supplying the review sample.

Their website sums up their history quite nicely:

We have the chance to take a close look at their first HTPC enclosure by the name of Altair A380. When first seeing the name I had to think of the Airbus A380 right of the bat. The enclosure is available in black and silver.
