Too much for me (around the £20-£25 mark and I would have had one) but congratulations for producing something. Kudos.

It undercuts any other mini/nano itx form factor case on sale.

Not a fair comparison. The other cases come with a PicoPSU and a 12v adapter worth an additional £30.

I actually have a PSU, but it had an EU plug so I need a shaver adapter. Once I get myself one, I promise rapid ports of the Spectrum, C64 and Amstrad CPC464 cores (and corresponding PIC) to MiniMig.

Minimig case: £67.45 , £17 more than the cheapest nano/mini itx case

That's better.

It looks better, at least in my and other people opinion, than most of the mass produced ones.It was made JUST for the Minimig by a long time Amigan.

Absolutely!

It's a Monarch butterfly I'll have you know!

I never get my wallet out because my genes are too tight!

I'll whisper sweet nothings to Tobiflex tomorrow to get the required files (He did the Amstrad and parts of the C64).

If you follow Yaqube's chats with Toni Wilen over at EAB you'll realised the guy is quite talented and motivated.
