"From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered,
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers.",
W. Shakespeare, Henry V

Need gaming horsepower but need to travel to events, LANs and competitions?  The Taurus shatters the myth that little means low power.  The Taurus houses the power of a conventional water cooled tower system inside this cube shaped chassis with a footprint the size of a mouse mat.  It hasn't compromised on looks either as you can get it in brushed aluminium anodised black, red, blue, gold or the natural aluminium silver colour.  It isn't even noisy with managed 120mm fans pushing air through the system front to back you can barely here it break a sweat.
