I will concur with what X-Ray says except I would modify one of his statements to read "most users have broken doors".  The original C= case, while looking pretty clean / visually pleasing, had issues with the door hinges and the clasps that held in the smoked window.  Most of these problems were resolved when enlight provided the newer case during the Escom / AT era.

The original case doors were so bad that around NewTek, it was not uncommon to see the towers with doors removed.

This newer case already exists during Commodore era.


You may be correct about that but they do not appear the same nor do the hinges on the door have the same thickness where the door inserts into the front panel.

The original C= front panel had quite flimsy hinges which broke quickly in almost every case.  When ESCOM/AT took over, they only released the later style enlight case which had a (IMO) less attractive front door but the hinges were much "beefier".  Seems to have cured the original problem.
