In terms of computational power, no, wrong.

In terms of aesthetic style, yes, correct.

love the aesthetic of disposable, cheap, commoditized plastic. Really screams "consumerism"

Disposable? You can reuse them for your next build usually.

Cheap? Not really.

Commodotized. Well the interior yeah, but not the exteriors.

Nice thing about PC cases is that you can, with a bit of modification, put new stuff in an old shell.

Do that, and now you're either being ironic, retro, or just actually recycling.
