ONLINE STORE PROFILE
Big008.com has
been a well known online retailer of quality computer components for at
least a couple of years now. One defined characteristic of this online
company is it's selection of Lian-li cases (Even the hard to find ones).
I had a glance at their profile and record on resellerratings.com
, and was really impressed at their record and you can have a peek for
yourself HERE

make this one of your first stops, the service and selection is great!
PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
The newest craze, the aluminum PC case, has swept the computer market
like a storm. Everyone is praising the quality, the lightness and the
lovely finish these cases have brought to the lucky purchaser's workstation.
Shining in the forefront is the king and overall leader of this niche
market, the Lian-Li. I myself have
kept tabs on all the latest models and am amazed as to how many models,
sizes and colours comprise the Lian-Li aluminum case lineup. Big008.com
was kind enough to donate a sample of the Lian-Li PC-86 to introduce me
to the premiere line of aluminum computer cases and to expose a model
that hasn't got allot of attention on the net.
