Hi Silent One. Glad you liked the pics, P&S and all.
The rack is completely modular and I believe you can add more racks as well as take some off if you don't need the four shelves it comes with. I found the same website that I ordered it from, and it is still there for the same price. You'll find all of the dimensions and other specs there. Here's a link.

Interesting point about the Ultraviolet. I guess at the time I assumed that since it was digital and already well reviewed, that most of their cables upmarket would be diminishing returns. I definitely hear clear differences with analog cables, but haven't really compared USB cables yet. Do you have any other recommendations or do you think the Starlight is the best value?
The Wireworld Ultraviolet USB Digital is a decent cable. It's the one I selected to start out my WooAudio journey with - Mac music server > DAC > Woo. A few Chess moves later saw the MHDT USBridge introduced to my system... and saw me cutting corners. My thinking was, since the bridge is re-clocking; improving the signal to the DAC, I'll just get a high quality Digital Coax and stay with the Ultraviolet. Shouldn't make a difference.
A few White Papers and conversations that followed brought more light. I tried the Wireworld Silver Starlight USB Digital cable and it was so very good to me. But I couldn't afford it, so after my 30 day trial, I shipped it back. Admittedly, there were a few purchases in between - Furutech GT2 USB; Wirewolrd Supernova 6 Glass Optical. All improvements on the Ultraviolet. But I didn't want to spend the money on them since the bridge was going to clean up the signal anyway.
Once I broke down and chased down the storied Mid '40's TS-BGRP VT-231's, I had to have the best! Being poor, I accepted "Better" instead of best.
