Thanks. Most probably you are right, but I figured it wouldn't be impossible 
for them to sell the cases alone since they do sell the boards without cases. 

While you're at it, the original NUC power supplies would be nice too =).

At this stage, it doesn't have to be metal although the extra shielding
