Review of the Impression IM-21 Mid Tower Case

1. Introduction

Well this is a nice occasion for us here at WhiningDog. We're presenting our first real case review for this site and we'd like to thank the Victor and Michael over at AJump.com for providing us with this case. Yes we've had reviews of entire barebones systems before and you've seen a number of cases in some pictures on our site, but we've never actually sat down and reviewed a case and only a case.

I've personally gone through quite a number of PC cases over the last few years. Heck, when I first got into the whole DIY hobby, I never thought much about the way cases played into the entire computer building experience. Back then, I just went for what worked. To be honest with you, I think for most people out there, what works is indeed good enough. However there are also some of you who just won't settle for that and want the very latest in light aluminum cases. Personally, I've seen one too many aluminum cases recently so when Ajump sent us the Impression IM-21 Mid Tower, I was pleasantly surprised to see that it wasn't your normal aluminum case but an all chromate case with a thick scratch resistance coating of chromate. Let's take a look inside shall we?

1.1 The company

I always like to take some time to look into the companies that we review. It's nice to know who's making your parts isn't it? Ok so maybe it's just me. In any case, Impression is a company that was founded in 1989 and has been delivering various different types of products for the consumer market but mostly in the computer industry. They market various products that range from computer monitors to accessories to cases like the IM-21. They're based in Fremont California. You can find more information about the company on the corporate website which can be found at : http://www.impression-brand.com/about_profile.asp
