Introduction
Over a year ago we had the
pleasure of reviewing a case that went by the name of the X-QPack, this
particular case was built by a company named Aspire.
Thing have changed quite a bit in a years time and
now we find ourselves ready to review the 2nd version of this
Micro-ATX case and Aspire has changed their name to
Apevia. So come on along as we look at this
new case and see if it has made it improvements over
the original model.
About Apevia
Apevia Corporation
is the new name for Aspire International Corporation
which was established in March 1999. Due to lots of
confusions between Aspire cases, Acer's Aspire
Notebook systems and Aspire Credit Cards, we have
decided to change our name to Apevia Corporation in
June 2006. With the strategy of standing behind our
customers to ensure their total satisfaction, Apevia
has been working closely with its customers and
focusing on providing innovative quality PC products
and services to keep up with the fast changing
market. Today, Apevia is one of industry leaders for
PC chassis.
Apevia designs, imports and
markets PC parts including Computer Cases,
Accessories and Peripherals such as Case Fans, Power
Supplies and Matching Color Keyboard/Mouse/Speaker
Kits. In 2004, to ensure the products quality and
provide better services to our customers, we have
consolidated our cases, power supplies, in-put
devices, accessories all under Aspire logo (now they
are under our new name "Apevia" logo) From designing
the prospective products to offering final products
to our customers, each process is carefully and
strictly evaluated to meet our highest standards and
market demands. Apevia delivers reliable quality
products, competitive prices, steady supply and
excellent services, as well as its commitment
to "total customer satisfaction".
