The DeepCool Steam Castle aims to take steampunk to the main stream. Available in four different colors with elaborate looks, will it manage to deliver hip looks right out of the box while remaining functional at a competitive price point, or is it a hip shell with a boring interior?

I understand making a black case (it's a neutral color that no one dislikes), but they need to offer some aged brass or aged bronze paint to complete the steampunk theme. It doesn't sound like it would be too expensive of an addition and I'm sure that it would have a niche market for it, at least as large of a market as the garish red and yellow versions they already offer.
