No I wouldn't, I have an £800 kitchen table and I have chosen not to cover it up as it looks nice. You spent £400 on a desk then covered it with some cheap protective surface? How about, I don't know, soldering somewhere else...? With all that money you spent on your PC desk you could have bought a cheap collapsable workbench and not worried about spilling solder somewhere expensive.
I got my desk at no cost thanks very much. That doesn't detract from the fact that something like the boogiebug is comfortable to use for both typing and gaming and doesn't make the desk look ugly or anything like that. It also matches in colour to the rest of my other desk surroundings so finishes off my workspace quite nicely.
If you think it it's pointless then fine, don't use one on your desk

Sometimes I think you just post so much negative guff in every thread just to get attention. and you're a grown adult WITH kids?
