Sorry, I should have said:

>1. Mid, Medium, or Full (no mini's) Tower for ATX motherboard
models: mid - MT-236ATX, full  - BT-235ATX 

>2. 250W or more power supply
Yes, all those I have bought have been 250W, but you need to check.
The full towers have had mains isolation switch on psu, the mids have
not, they must use either in-house or other manufacturers psus.

>3. Soft switch so system will power itself off when shutting down win95
Yes

>4. Removable motherboard chassis with framework for expansion cards 
Yes

>5. Removable brackets for mounting internal hard drives (like Enlight)
Yes - for 3.5" - 2xfd, 2xhd on mid. 3xfd, 2xhd on full.

>6. Rails to mount on internal CDROM drive
Yes - 6 bays for full, 3 for Mid

The above refers to the "profesional" range, 59.40 ukp+tax for Mid,
73.70ukp+tax for full.
I have just checked the prices, the 45 ukp I quoted above is an AT case.

Top and both sides separately removable, front panel unclips, but
sturdy.
