It looks like a good idea. The drawing reminds me of plans for some industrial complex or somethin'.

Think you should draw up a more detailed sketch and then start making changes here and there. Good concept though, think I've seen something like this for a bf2 mod case...

I must say that your design is quite unique. I enjoy people like you using there brains for once. I like the overall layout of the build but there is only one thing I would change I have been looking the the sketch for awhile now and I don't think there should be a different compartment for the hard drive and dvd drive. Try to draw up something that sorta keeps everything together and post back to me what you have came up with.
