Duel computer desk for kids room

Good day all.

My wife and I, have got sick to the back teeth of computers being on the dining room table, that I am now trying to design an build a custom computer desk to house two full computer systems, into the cornor of the kids bed room.

I have to try and fit all this into an area of 1240mm wide by 940mm deep.
And have to all be enclosed so that it can not be tampered with by the kids.

Here is what I have come up with so far.

There is also a PDF version of the full 3D render of my current design in the link above, but the file is quite large around 30MB.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Best Regards.

The computers are not very high end computers, as they are only used for basic internet use, and playing games like minecraft, counter-stike and team fortress 2, etc.

The cabinet for the computers will have vent holes at the front and rear, plus at least 3x 120mm fans on the rear to give good air flow.

I quite like the looks and idea of that "PC Jump Start" I will have to look into that at a later point.

All the cables, bar keyboard and mouse, are going to be out of the way.

Both the model and pdf export was done in SolidWorks.

Craig321: Yes having the monitor's built in will limit upgrades, but I am sure the two 19" Dell Ultrasharp's will do the kids fine.

Once again this is for my 5 kids to share, ages from 3-12 Years.

Once it is all built, I will not be looking to upgrade it for a long time.
