time for new case layout

I think it maybe time to get away from the tower design case. Every day now i am reading about mobo warping. This has to be caused by the heft of hs/fan combos. I myself am worried about my cooler master v8 hanging off the side of my mobo. Why not go back to the old desk top horizontal mounted mobo's? this would also help with the heat issues. And while we are talking about it why are psu's still inside the case why not have a remotely

located psu that can sit on the floor?

On the psu side of things, might be a good idea to keep it in a case, so the fan doesn't act as a hoover?
