Oh I've seen them, I might even still have a couple. I've seen others, like you have, with some bits of metal tacked in places over some of the plastic.

Regulations and good design practice doesn't seem to stop some people, though. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
