Thanks for the comments ctbram
the elevated top is to allow for underneath lighting, and to minimize any hot spots the lighting could/would create on the cabinet's tops ....

am currently trying to muddle my way through the interior modeling tut
going to try to add a couple extra rooms when modeling,
1 for this computer cabinet, and 1 for my bedroom wall unit

still having issues grokking texturing/mental ray rendering/gamma correction/etc/etc
but still, slowly making progress....
