for the tray with people talking about how it should swivel make attach it to the front part on both sides and then it should rotate and be able to open it right up so you can just watch tv

another idea would be putting connectors on the outside of the bottom part power brick ect. 

looks great though you should be able to fit a system in the bottom front part of it

I'd add a swivel shelf for keyboard/mouse

Don't forget, putting three monitors that close to your face can screw your eyes, and might be a little awkward for you.

I actually was going to say the same thing. Well, not going to lie, you pointed out even the stuff I missed.

 

This is looking very very very cool, can't wait to see it done.
