Mostly just saving a spot, haven't started on it yet though (gonna do that when I get home!). Got my concept thought out though, I'm gonna convert it into the ultimate gaming rig. Instead of the drawer it'll be a fold-down tray with the keyboard, trackball, and possibly a joystick built into it. The stuff above the drawer I'm going to make into a pair of fold-out doors with speakers on the inside panel of the door. Behind those will be a nice big monitor to play on. The big thing on the side is gonna be the coolant tank for the massive cluster of CPU's/GPU's onboard. The top thing I'm gonna make into an exhaust vent for two industrial strength ultra-quiet fans.

Hopefully that isn't changing the concept too much.

Small Update: Didn't have too much time last night, but I did a bit of work on the fold-out speaker doors and blocked out lower keyboard drawer (I'll add the curve to the bottom later, i just figured I'd clone the base of the speaker door before I started adding details).

Another small update. Added the exhaust fans and some of the upper panels.

I added the coolant tank and hoses, and some of the details on the side and front.

Agreed, might just be that there are so many submissions. It's very original too.

The hp details are going to pop great in the normal, looking forward to the textures.

Thanks everyone, glad you like it! Here's another very small update: Added the top part of the coolant tank, the LCD screen, and some tracks for the center doors so they can slide in beside the screen.
