Yes. a "regular desktop," not a tower. And I'm very pleased with mine and Windows 7.

The photo is definitely off. I bought mine in Dec 2013 from EZ Buy Cafe and the display photo then was different. But the machine itself is a regular desktop.

Regular desktop and the one I received is quite small 121/2" high 135/8" deep and 35/8" wide standing up can use it upright or laying flat . I can't understand the picture of that case unless it is a picture of the back showing the connections. Very nice and I would say nice looking in a way. Very pleased with it

I'm not entirely sure what you mean. But, everything on the pc that is in the picture is really there. I just checked mine. It's a great computer, but I bought it at $399.99.

No on the first two. The aluminum part is the deck around and below the keyboard. The rest is plastic colored to look like brushed aluminum. It is very sturdy, though and the aluminum deck gives it a very solid feel under your hands. This machine is not *quite* as thin as an ultrabook. It is almost that slim, though. I think the specs say it's 1" thick closed, which is about right. I haven't tried SC2 or D3 on mine, but this Acer runs League of Legends very well, and I have run SC2 on less powerful laptops. I would think you could play both games, but not on max graphics. This computer is definitely a step down from a performance ultrabook, but for the money, it's not a big step down.

Cheers Jack! This means that this case is just that, only a case. I'm currently building a computer using this case and it's very solid and very large but you have to buy and place all of the parts such as power supply, optical drive, motherboard, and so on. Websites such as pcpartpicker or others are infinitely helpful in finding compatible parts for your computer.

It is the same color. Each computer screen shows colors differently so I can't say it is "exactly".

I've long since donated it to charity, the short USB and audio cables being a huge part of the reason (the grainy picture the other part), but if I remember right, it was no more than a foot.I think Amazon should make sure info like this is included in the description before allowing hardware to be listed. Few people have actual desktop models these days. Most PC users have midtower sizes tucked at the bottom of a table or desk.

Not sure but the item was not as advertised and when I wanted to to return it they wanted to charge me a heavy restocking fee so I sold it to a neighbor. Stay away from this desktop if possible

No, it isn't ugly. There is a very subtle difference between the white paint on the metal panels and the white of the plastic on top of the case. They might have been complaining about that. The paint job is good quality though and the case looks good. I've had mine for about 3 months and I'm pretty happy with it. The finish actually makes it easy to dust off and the dust filters do their job pretty well. Also if you don't want to risk your hardware with liquid cooling for the relatively small overclocking gains you get with a closed loop liquid cooler, big air coolers fit well inside the case. I had plenty of room for the big 14cm phanteks.

Yes, It has both. (apologies for answering so long after you asked. I just saw the question. (another amazon customer, who bought this machine). I have been very happy with it, and think it is a great value for what you get. Would recommend the brand/ similar desktops which are currently available. Too bad this one is not offered any more.

No it is not a different case, just a different angle. The red and white case shows off the front panel better than the black one does. They are the same case.

It is designed for desktops. It happens to be installed in the desktop on which I am typing this.

Its essentially a big X.. that expands to accommodate the width of your tower.My tower is HUGE! (Thermaltake Armor LCS) and is sits under the middle of the case stable and secure for years now.Never had a problem. Hope that helped :)

No!!! Very nice case, but it only includes (2) 120mm fans, and hardware (screws and mounts). Unfortunately, no power supply.

Mine are blue but they have different computer models, so i don't know what the one you are looking at will be. All of the models are different. You need to ask the company about your choice of model. They are very friendly and will help you with answers. I got the more industrial looking case and it is black with neon blue light, and one red light. I like how the on button is halfway up the case, and part of the design. The on light and front fan lights are blue on mine. The case is very huge. A large amount of room for upgrades, components are very easy to get to, but I don't need any upgrades for a long time, as it was future ready out of the box. I love my Microtel. It runs smooth and very fast! Will buy from them again and again as long as they are in business. I had one blue screen glitch but that was Windows related, and that was easily fixed, so now it works perfect. Beautiful. I am using Gimp, Mind mapping, doing graphic extensive artwork and running ram heavy software, writing novels and playing games and I don't even cause the CPU to blink above 1-2% usage. They make powerhouses and call them computers. And yet, they are cost efficient to run.

I cant recall. Your mainboard usually comes with one though. It definately doesnt have one built into the case itself like the old days if thats what you are asking
