the antec minute: http://www.antec.com/us/productDetails.php?ProdID=15102

or silverstone cases (they have a lot of small form factor cases): http://www.silverstonetek.com/products/enclosure.php?area=usa

edit:

Heads up, you will need low profile cards if you want to upgrade video or something.

Silverstone have some very nice small cases and are good quality, unfortunately they are quite expensive.

ASUS make some nice uATX towers

I havent found any nice looking mATX cases. I like everything about the lanbox lite (price/features/internal design) except its looks! The front looks really bad, and its like a rectangular box. Also, its a little large going backwards (even though its OK cus it can fit an 8800 and has a normal ATX power supply :p).

Anyways, anyone know of any other decent looking mATX cases (preferably the "cube" like cases)?

I have looked at all the cases posted in this thread. The silverstones ones arent bad; they probably have the best designs (not great, but better than the rest by far)....but they are $250-$450 :eek:
