Looks good. Photoshop can do some neat stuff. I dont know how many times people have told me "this old TV cabinet would be perfect for an HDTV, just gut out this old junk guts and install the new TV". It might work quite well.

Right you are! I made "my" console a bit shallower (about as deep as a bookcase), as I trimmed a few inches off the depth, as plasma sets are thinner than CRTs were. However I'd discourage gutting an old classic, but would like to see TV manufacturers produce HDTVs in classic console style cabinets.
