Computer Casing: Mangyao, Manos, Mendez, Noay, Patula, Teves, Yuson, Villarosa, Sarsuelo

There are two main types of computer casings: desktop and tower. Desktop casings are designed so that the system unit fits entirely on a desk, while tower casings enable the system unit to sit vertically on the floor or under a desk. Within tower casings, there are mini tower, mid tower, and full tower options that differ in size and upgradability. The ideal casing depends on the user's needs and setup, with desktop best for space-limited desks, mid towers providing expandability for most users, and full towers offering the most room for advanced users and servers.
