The Outside:
My initial impression of the Zeus was a good one. The case had a fresh looking design. The overall color scheme is definitely one that can grab some attention. The front of the case has a total of 4 5.25" slots (one of them is convertible to 3.25") and a floppy slot. The top 2 5.25" slots have spring loaded flaps for you various CD/DVD/CDRW/DVDR drives' trays to peek out of. This, of course would not work for those of you that use slot loading disc drives. For for those of you that have drives with trays, this saves you the trouble of painting the drive to match your case. Keep in mind, using these slot covers comes at a price - the headphone jack and the volume control on your drive will be blocked. Located just under the floppy slot, is the power and reset buttons which is surrounded by an interesting plexiglass seal. At the very bottom, is a hideaway latch which reveals 2 USB ports and 2 Audio jacks which you can connect to the back of the case via a set of internal cables.

A look at the left side of the case reveals a premodified window which gives you a nice look at the inside of the case. This is a very nice feature and tends to save you a LOT of work. Windows kits can cost you about $15 alone not to mention the additional effort and anxiety of installing it on your case. The right side of the Zeus, just like the left side, has ventilation slots to aid in the movement of fresh air into the case. At top, we find yet another common modification that has been already provided for you - the blowhole. The blowhole helps the pull cool air that is coming in from the front chassis fan and the side ventillation slots towards the top.

The back of the case reveals 7 expansion slots. There is also a spot for a rear chassis fan to further assist in air movement within the case. Unlike the Zeus's predecessors which has front USB ports and audio jacks whose cables had to be run through the back via one of the expansion slots, there is a specialized hole for this purpose.
