Question Looking For A Wooden AV Cabinet

With the fashion of having glass and chrome AV stands and cabinets, I cannot go down this route due to having an 8 week old daughter.

In the not too distant future, I don't want mucky fingers, toys and other associated impilments inserted into any of the hardware.

This means I need to get something more of a cabinet with doors rather than a stand. A wooden cabinet would be more fitting with the current decor.

Components to house:

40 - 42" LCD TV on top

Sky box
Receiver
Games Console
DVD Recorder / HD DVD Player

I have looked at the various adverts in magazines and can't come up with anything suitable.

How about this it has glass doors though which might not be good with kids running around.

I would prefer solid doors and use a magic eye for remote control.

Just found this one on the Ikea website...
