I don't know of anywhere local that sells those cases, but EBC does
have some cases, though I haven't really seen anything I'd consider
"next-to-TV" worthy.  I've got the CoolerMaster still if you want some
pics or something; I've also got a SilverStone LC-11 I can take some
pics of if you want them; but either case can be viewed on the net:
