Are the computer cases reversable?
If I am looking at the computer and the left side panel is a window, can I move the window to the right side panel?

Well you could potentially put the windowed panel on the opposite side, but you wouldn't see anything but the back of the motherboard, which will be rather boring. The only way to get a system that works the same way as a normal PC with regard to having a window and being able to see all the components inside is to build a BTX system, and BTX gamer cases are very rare (I've never seen one)

The sides are usualy interchangable, but this does vary by brand...some cannot be switched at all, and others need extra screw holes drilled.

Just to satisfy my curiosity, why would you want the plastic window on the MB side of the case?

That was my point as well, hence wanting a BTX (or BTX-style) layout. Cases like this do exist, but they're not exactly common.

I dont want the mother board on the window side. but my computer is going under an oak desk and the computer will have the left side (if you are facing the computer against the wall of the desk.
what I really want is the window on the right side of the computer and the motherboard on the left side of the computer.
Is there such a thing?

The Lian-Li PC-V2000B is such a thing, but quite a pricey thing...
