Abstract
A computer cabinet with extending light has a front and an opposing back. The computer cabinet includes opposing first and second side panels, a door, a first drawer, a second drawer, and a lamp. The first and second side panels are spaced apart from and generally parallel with one another, and further extend generally vertically upward from a supporting floor. The first drawer is slidably connected with one of the first and second side panels, whereby the first drawer slides between extended and retracted positions. The first drawer extends out the front of the computer cabinet in the extended position and is retracted into the computer cabinet in the retracted position. The first drawer also has a drawer front. The second drawer is slidably connected with the first drawer, whereby the second drawer slides between extended and retracted positions. The second drawer extends out the front of the first drawer in the extended position and is retracted into the first drawer in the retracted position. The lamp is slidably connected with one of the first and second side panels, whereby the lamp slides between extended and retracted positions. The lamp extends out the front of the computer cabinet in the extended position and is retracted into the computer cabinet in the retracted position. The lamp further includes a position responsive switch that switches the lamp on or off when the lamp moves between the extended and retracted positions.
