Alienware probably has the greatest computer cases available. Dell not so much. Put the two together and what do you get? The weirdest looking computer you've ever seen. Dubbed the XCS, the case seems to use peripherals like cartridges, possibly allowing for the swapping of harddrives or anything else you might want to swap. Although I doubt this case is ever going to actually make it to consumers. It's too different from current systems to ever catch on. They might as well be presenting a raw fish and saying "This is the next generation of computer!"

it looks neat, but in terms of actual usability... the jury's still out.

That's whack.  When I first saw it, I thought it was some kind of speaker system.  I guess they're trying to make it easier for people to do upgrades.  Just buy one of those (severely overpriced) modules and plug it in.

Well... it's a bit too radical for me, I think.
