Daft TV Stand Question

[rpstewart]

I'm in the market for a new TV but having a bit of trouble picking a stand, principally because it's got to take my media PC which is a good 440mm deep and most of the stands out there are 400mm tops. I've spotted a nice Kenmark one which has enough space for all the kit but is listed as being for up to 32" TVs. So here comes the daft question:

Surely there's no problem (weight limits aside) in putting a 40" TV (1000mm wide) on an 800mm wide stand?

I did look at the Equinox and very nice it is too, shame it's just a shade too wide to go in the alcove.

That looks interesting, I might take a run up to Ikea and have a look at it.
