i would suggest a lowboy or something along those lines and have the shelfs be above the cab. unless your unable to move the shelving. course from the look of the photo shop you should just build that exactly as it is photoshoped. with an lcd at that angle and 5inchs of clearance beneath the cp you would be able to easily get a mobo stuck under the lcd. more so if you use a mini-itx board that uses the laptop style power supplys.

Blanka:
A bouquet of flowers every Saturday you are building is wife friendly.

TOK:
Build a giant cab that will fall on her and look like an accident, then get what you really want!

I did a shallow depth full size cab.  It's in my signature.

I did it out of oak and stained it.  No decals other than the marquee.  Very wife friendly and when family is over, they don't even realzie that it is an arcade cabinet till they notice hte control panel.  It just looks like a piece of furniture to the passer by.  The trick is not size.  It is making it look like it belongs in the room.  A brgiht yellow bartop might be hated more than a furntiure styled full size.

No one has done a bartop woody yet.  That's a thought ;-)

If you like it, let me know and I can measure it.
