No, even for the right case that is a lot of money. And connectors change. Right now I'd like firewire, eSATA, USB3 and audio as external sockets, but you could easily add thunderbolt to that list for some users. Within a few years there will be other connectors as standard and the case will be outdated again. I kept a chieftec dragon purple case for a few years (until 80mm fans were no longer the norm), and my current cases are showing their age in terms of outdated connectors - they just don't last that long! Besides $699 = screw over the British £699 and that is just insane for a case.
