    I’m not against plexiglas/plastic windows, but real glass, even tempered, for me is a very potential broken panel.

    And those who have their PC case on the floor can’t take much advantage of a transpatent panel to see the fans…

      I think real is ok so long as it’s got a frame all around it. The single panels of glass seem like madness to me. I do prefer plexiglass personally. I also definitely have my pc on the floor and can see inside it at a glance. (Better than when I was briefly obliged to have it on my desk). It’s not stashed under the desk though TBF.

        How well do those panels resist clumsy owners? I’m the kind of guy who always drops shit LTT style.

          Afaik they’re not likely to shatter to bumps. It’s contact with something hard and sharp that’s the big issue.
