Lian Li Cases

Perhaps United States beef is a better term. America can mean North America or South and Central America. Outside of the US beef may not come from the US. I'm sure some companies that sell cheap microwavable meals may buy their beef from other countries. I buy mine locally and it's the best I've had anywhere. I live around many beef cattle farms.

What case are you going with?

Grammar NAZI.

That page means nothing that's sales figures, i bet its sold in bulk. Volume doesn't equal taste, most bulk food is produced cheaper. There is most certainly a good variety of meat in America and im sure some of it is fantastic but the BULK is not its just plain much like other places but the volume shipped is much less.

I'm not being biased, i heard that Argentine beef is fantastic but i know that our beef in Scotland is some of the best in Europe from reputation but the French hate importing due to some stupid farmers thing (they blockaded a shipment of sheep from England on a Motorway or something i cant remember much but the farmers feel importing was killing the farming industry).

Well i can only tell anyone what ive heard and that was the US imports South American beef; eg Argentine/Brazilian. Look i saw it on a documentary about South America and the rainforest, US food chains tend to buy cheap. I don't know if that applies now because it was a while ago like maybe 7 years ago i would have saw that program on tv.

I'm going to be honest here i am really tempted to talk about Americans being extremely arrogant (the majority spoils the few) but that would be suicide. Im saying that because i want people to know that is how i feel because ive yet to be proven that the majority is not spoiling the reputation for the few.

What about cases any ideas i like the Lian Li cases but they are expensive, if you don't mind not having a side window (there is always option to buy one later although it ends up being dearer) then the cases are generally cheaper, some cases i cant even find for sale with the window variant in the UK.

I know that this post is mostly infractable (is that a word doesn't matter you get the idea) but i think id rather say that than not; its just mostly spamming up a topic. I could have really ignored but i didn't sorry.
 
will this please her ?

The angry Scott strikes again. Ok I don't know what you were watching but United States beef is good beef. We export all over the world. I've eaten Scottish highland cow meat, Kobe beef, and Hawaiian beef you name it. The best? Hands down Hawaiian beef. But you know whats funny? A lot, NOT ALL Europeans stereotype Americans as being arrogant cowboys that live in a bubble. The sad part is its people that stereotype us who are just as bad as what they think they hate.

You have to take people on a case by case bases. No two people are alike. I have pride in my country but I'm not arrogant to its problems and I damn sure don't stereotype people based off of cultural bigotry. Some of my friends on TPU are from Iraq and I've traveled to Pakistan before and yet most people think Americans hate anything of Arab decent. My wife is Lebanese. So don't assume you know a person based off of their culture otherwise I would assume you were a drunkard sheep shagger. ;)

Anyway on topic I havent decided on a case yet. I feel like a kid in a candy shop. :laugh:

Whatever sources you get your information from aren't always correct. I suggest you don't waste your time on rants dealing with people from other countries unless you go and have a visit first. If you ever stop by this country you are welcome in my home. I know I'm guilty of being off topic here too, but lets keep on topic from now on. :toast:

Am I welcome to your home? We could get mad drunk and shoot guns and blow up stuff.
 
I went to the worst place in the USA to have a first experience, Orlando! Sure i didn't go to Disney World (Universal Studios is much better IMHO) but you get he idea its not a good first impression. INFACT, tbh the whole country is different comparing Boston to LA its like 2 different countries in style even some cities its radically different in certain places so i cant presume to know what your area is like.

I dont mean to offend anyone personally, ive met lots of nice people from the USA, online and in person. I dont know what i meant im not like that usually. I just realised i was being borderline racist in my last post WHICH I WANT TO POINT OUT AM REVERENTLY AGAINST (apart from the meat shit that was just blabbering because i wanted to get my point across in the most wrong place), its a huge cultural difference even though we share a common language so i shouldn't presume anything, no ones being arrogant its a cultural difference.

I know lets call it bad night for me...

The case H82LUZ73 posted looks like a hotel in Dubai! Cant remember its name but its on its own man made island. I like to know what people like in a case, for me it was that kinda functional but easy simple looks. I didnt have a lot to spend either so that was a factor.

PS. If i ever offend anyone i want people to tell me so i can try to understand, i don't mean to act like a dick and troll even though i do. I know that i could easily just be banned and things would go on like nothing but i forget im not having a one way conversation face to face, its a forum and lots of people are sharing posts and threads. I need to take some time out from the forums.

Happy Christmas and i hope MailMan finds a suitable case, as the saying goes any Lian Li is a good choice its just price thats the difference between them.

EDIT: Talking about Racial problems, almost everyone hate the eastern European immigrants, people hate the Muslim community even before the terrorist stuff (a few of my friends in college are Muslims) and Catholic community is despised in Scotland, i am Catholic btw and that whole paedophile stuff is exactly like assuming America is generally arrogant. I should know better than to stereotype race and personality. Reputations of beef, APPARENTLY Argentine is the shit next to Kobe, Texan cattle is meant to be top too but that doesn't mean US.

Thats one weird case! :laugh: Maybe the color doesn't do it justice!

P.S Btw, I like scotland, their culture, their history, their never let die attitude (william wallace comes to mind) and judging by your posts, you re one tough guy! :toast:

Trainspotting is a more modern look at Scotland or one aspect of our culture.
Unfortunately his persistence cost William Wallace his life but we never gave up after his death we even have our own parliament in Scotland these days and maybe independence from the rest of Britain. Thats another story.

Its an interesting place to live well i think so anyway. Have decided to break from the tinternet till after i get back from new year, had a rough few months and it wears off on others.

Lian Li have like a Catalogue PDF which could be useful but then again its not that different from its site.

Discrimination, hate and war will always be around no matter the time we live in. Many people still have a deep hatred towards another country for any number of reasons. My father fought in the Vietnam war and saw his friends die around him. My father simply hates USA or Uncle Sam as we call the USA in Australia. You could explain that the USA has changed and has overcome some of its problems but my father cannot take away the pain he was put through and says something like, "well have they changed by going to Iraq?" This hatred of countries can go through to the Korean War, WWII, WWI and the Boer War to name a few. I know relatives who still despise the Germans or hate the Italians and even in South Africa there are Boers wanting freedom from a multi-cultural society. Hate for another country or race has been around since the birth of humans and will end when the last of humanity is wiped out.

I personally 'dislike' USA myself because of the amount of racism, violence, crazy religious fanatics and stupidity the country shows to the rest of the world. However I have friends who are from America and show the complete opposite of what America is portrayed as. Most of this forum is full of Americans and all are kind, generous, polite and will always help someone out. I don't think I'll ever fully 'like' America as a whole, but most of the people from it are just the same as the rest of the world.

Oh and the Lian Li PCA70F is an awesome case, one of my favourite Lian Li Cases:

Yeah let's not make judgements based on the mistakes of some. I for one do like the usa, learnt a lot about their history and involvements etc at school. Every nation aint perfect, thats a fact.

Yeah that is completely true, no nation is perfect. Australia was founded on convicts and racism to the indigenous race and we have only just apologized to the Aboriginals last year. I also find Americas history quite interesting, especially the Civil War.
 
The case H82LUZ73 posted looks like a Hoover.

Any li li case will be nice,like MilkyWay said.You pays yer money,you makes your choice.

that case is nearly what i require the only thing i don't like is the screwless pci slots bit on the back ,do these cases have holes so you can use screws ?
anyways mailman if you want one it looks fView attachment 31567 brilliant :D

I do know the tool-less clips are removable, and there is a hole, but I dont remember if it was threaded. I will say this...This mechanism that Lian Li uses is solid and super secure. It takes some good pressure to lock it in, and once its locked they dont move. If you are looking to get it, try it out first, I bet it will change your mind;)
 
I don't know if I like it and I definitely prefer Lian Li cases but what about the new NZXT case...

Yeah fair enough, I think I've only ever seen one case of theirs I like.
 
Im so tempted to be a dickhead......
