One thing you could think about for the post is adding a bit more plexi / lexan. Drill a couple holes so you can screw it into your wood and use a flush cutter router bit, then take it back off and spray the back side with black spray. You could also leave a window where you could insert an instruction card. If you don't want to wait for adhesive vinyl, then you can always just run to an upholstery shop and pick up a bit of left over in what ever color you like and a can of 3m adhesive spray. You can staple the corners in place and hide the staples with a L shaped piece of aluminum from home depot / lowes. They have the stuff in their metal working sections. Spray that any color you like and you will have a A+ machine.
Good job buddy, you are really doing a great job with this. Keep it up, and remember who you are making this for. Yourself:-)

I think Danny is suggesting decasing your PC and putting the motherboard and power supply in the control panel box. But I don't see that as necessary if you make a front door for the cabinet.
That's a TV, right? Is there an "input select" button on it? If there is, you could put consoles in there and play them with wireless controllers, you can easily switch video sources between PC and consoles with the input select button.
There's even room in there for DVDs and peripherals.

the reason is that this is quite a minimalist look, so the less clutter the better. it loks to me like yur feet probably will be where a front door would go...
