Find a case that looks cute. That's the most important thing... a very cute case. My has these cute little purple buttons. Very adorable. Seriously though... just make sure your case and motherboard are of the same type. Drove me nuts trying to fit my ATX motherboard into an old 386 case. Luckily, the power supply didn't give me any problems.
