Lian Li Giving a Sneak Peak of the Latest Desk and O Series Chassis at CeBIT '15
Lian-Li Industrial Co. Ltd is pleased to announce that prototypes of the latest O Series Chassis and Desk Chassis will be on display at CeBIT 2015. Lian Li invites all to get a sneak peak at its booth (Hall 17, D26) of the latest editions of the some of the most talked about chassis lines.
Combining the symbiotic relationship of desks and computer cases, the DK-01 and DK-02 were the first desk chassis to be brought to the mainstream market. Now, almost a year after their initial release, Lian Li will be debuting a desk chassis prototype, DK-Q2, that is a result of user feedback. Major updates include a removable motherboard tray, new leg design, and a slimmer body.
The O Series was initially launched in 2014 featuring a combination of Lian Li's traditional high-end aluminum construction with an oversized tempered glass window, and allowed DIY builders to show off their hardware creations. The newest addition to the O Series, PC-O8, which is to be previewed at CeBIT 2015, follows the series' philosophy, but does so in a bigger and more expansive form factor.
With a history of eye-catching unveilings at CeBIT, Lian Li will once again prove itself an industry leader and innovator without sacrificing product quality. Attendees will be able to see the engineering expertise of Lian Li in meeting the latest trends and market demands.

i know they offer us new design but i dont think it will be 1st choice when you wanna buy a case
I am also mostly amused that they still have an ATI prop card lying around.
Back when I built my htpc, my current case was literally the only one of it's type/size that would fit a full-height card/power supply/decent height cooler (granted also a special-use design at the time), as well as using 120mm side fans (granted to this day I will never understand why their cases often don't include dust filters). Now you can buy great small cases (and low-profile hsfs) with odd-but-functional designs that fit all that criteria from other companies for much cheaper and/or with better use of space (for longer video cards or a smaller profile without sacrificing much performance). I don't doubt similar designs to these will be copied and sold by larger or more generic brands as well. I certainly could see a 'desk case' (or coffee table/shelf case) taking off if someone were to IKEA-tize it without making too many concessions and/or adding a couple tweaks to appeal to a broader audience (especially at a lower price).
New Deskcase would look great in the room in tandem with classic wooden desk. Early DK series was weird. This one is interesting, but will wait if there is bigger model. They say about user feedback - well certainly they ignored me. No 5.25" slots which is deal breaker for me sadly...
