    I can't say I'm not disappointed, but I can say congratulations to Snowy, WELL DONE! I know how much work has gone into your design, a deserving winner!

    A very big thank you to all those who supported me!

    Your case is great, I'm sure it will come to life in a way or another.

    your case would be perfect for me...it's a very pity...and just for 1 vote!!! :duh:
    i hope that you will find a way to realize and sell it...i would surely buy one...


    the Black Owl, is more eye-attractive at the first sight...but the inner solution are not revolutionary IMO, and the risk is that the real case (i think that to redure production costs, phobya will introduce some changes in the original design) would be no more than another case in the market...

    we'll see...

    so my vote would'va make some difference,but they didn't approve...
    i hope that they will consider the close result and decide to make both cases,because besides the old users on this forum which had the chance to vote,they are more of us which we wanted to vote,but couldn't.

    Well done to everyone who took part - I can't believe how close the votes were. Over 250 votes and one vote separates 1st and 2nd and 3rd and 4th! Congratulations to SnowyOwl - we'll be in touch!

    I'd like to personally thank every one of the designers, especially the final four. If any of you need further support from bit-tech, be it in building the case yourself, or finding someone who may be able to build it for you, just drop me a line.

    Damn we lost :(! Sadly I couldn't buy snowy's case anyway because it's too small for my actual hardware. It'd be fantastic if both cases were made since they're aimed at different form factors so they don't really overlap :). Maybe a first run with Black Owl and see how the market responds, then release Proteus :p

    GG Mick64!

    Congrats to Snowyowl, and an all around good job to the all the participants. It's been quite a little experience, and I have to say - in spite of my decision to withdraw, I enjoyed participating and competing with you guys, and learned a few things along the way. I wish all of you luck in your future endeavors, and I hope to see a few of these designs turned to reality one way or another.

    Congrats SnowyOwl! :clap:

    And for all that took part in the contest, and the effort you made.

    We will be in touch shortly to discuss the manufacture of the case.

    Thank you to everybody who made this contest possible

    Thank you to all contestant who were really respectfull of other designer. It's great to be part of a community that can share and discuss in a respectfull way.

    I can tell everyone Phobya as already contacted me in order to make this design come to life.

    I really hope mick gets it's case product by some company because he as put great effort in making is concept ready for production...i truly wish him to get the case to market.

    Thank you all again this was a lot of fun. I hope we get a similar opportunity in the future.

    Best regards,

    :rock:David :rock:
