Well I'm getting closer...

Here is the computer desk with the hutch lighting completed. It's an LED rope light with diffuse lighting rather than intermittent lights in a rope. The color is continuous... I was hoping it was closer to the Alienware Blue, but it's close enough... It also looks better in person than in the image. It isn't so washed out and you can see the hats.

I had to remove the hutch, which is pretty easy, unplug the monitors at the back, both the power and signal cables, move them and remove two screws underneath the desk top. Pick it up and walk away... Then I had to cut the channels for the light rope to pass through, and I used a quality indoor/outdoor silicone to adhere the cable just inside the front edge.

Now to finish up cleaning and organizing the cables and I'll be done with the setup and install.
The light on the wall coming up from behind the right monitor is a star image projector. It displays star images on the wall and ceiling. I'll adjust the pattern in time... On the right wall, just to the left of the B-17 image, you can see an observatory on the wall.
