4.0 out of 5 stars Mistake, May 3, 2006

This review is from: Vanguard Designer 82 Aluminum Computer Case (Personal Computers)

As the other reviewer said, this case is not 3" - that is a mistake. Correct dimensions can be found on Vanguard's website. This case is the same height as the Designer 81 model (2.375"), and the same width and length as the Designer 83 (18" x 13"). The Designer 83 is 3" high. Note these are all outer dimensions.

Seems like a lot of websites make this mistake, and I learned the hard way.

However, these Vanguard Designer cases are very nice, and I recommend them if you can get the right fit.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not 3", October 9, 2005

This review is from: Vanguard Designer 82 Aluminum Computer Case (Personal Computers)

This item is okay if you only want to take your laptop(mine is a 17" Apple powerbook) and not your cord!! Its more like 2.4 inches thick not 3. Amazon charged me to ship this item back because they claim it's not thier fault that it is NOT 3". I normally love Amazon, but I lost money on this deal. A fella must have wrote this description as it is not 3" on any ruler in my house. I did get the 4" model of this case from Vanguard and love it. I would have ordered it in the first place if I had known.
