lol for the longest time, that spot was just a storage shelf. I had a pc that constantly needed tweaking, and it had cooling problems so I had the side panel permanently off and a box fan blowing into it. When I got my new PC (Store bought, I was tired of building them and couldn't be happier with what I got for my buck at best buy) I decided "Damn it, it's time I used this desk properly." I don't intend to be doing much messing around inside this PC, so it fits well there.
