Out of Box Experience Continued:

The front of the Unicorn is more of a
conventional look, with some interesting design choices thrown in
for good measure. The door itself is held closed with two
small magnets, and the power and reset switches are on the top of
the door, meaning they are accessible even with the door closed.
The door itself is a mix of plastic and brushed aluminum, with a
very solid feel.

Here is a close up of the switches themselves,
with the reset on the left, and the power in the center. The
LEDs are the two small points to the right.

Here is the backside of the door as it sits open.
The backing is entirely plastic, with a grille on the side that lets air
into front intake, as well as lets light out from the LED fan.
Notice the cabling for the Power and Reset switches and LEDs running in
from the bottom.

Now, we are looking at the intake fan itself, with
two USB ports and the audio jacks on the bottom. Unfortunately,
these are not accessible unless the door is open. I would have
liked to have seen these placed on top by the power switch, or on the
side panel like is done on some other cases.

Next up, we have the back side of the case, which
presents some surprises of its own. First off, we notice the
handle at the top: this is for the motherboard tray removal feature.
Secondly, we have what appears to be another fan, which is definitely
different.

Upon closer look, we see that there is no fan,
just a fan port for another 80mm fan. This directly vents the
upper 3.5" drive cage.

The back side of the case is far from typical as
well, with a dividing line that separates half of the chassis when the
motherboard tray is pulled out.
