    To be honest, I wouldn't have that...'thing' it if it were free.

    So Louis, if by chance you get one for free, you're saying you'll give it to me? Cool. I'll pay shipping!

    That reminds me of the infamous Zalman TNN 500A, an entire case that was designed as a heatsink. No idea if they're still making it, but here's a review. I wish more case makers would think of whacked-out stuff like this.

    With the component isolation and surface area, I would imagine heat wouldn't be a problem for peripherals. You might run into a few issues with routing the wiring (length mainly), but it looks pretty slick.

    Not sure about the noise levels you would get, but if they are low enough, it would be nice if they put in some kind of bracket for an LCD to attach on the backside. Then you could put the whole thing on the desk, and move everything with the top handle.
