LOL, im more interested in the tables than the computers

Im in market for one.

I need a table of wood design that will allow a 19" TFT, Cordless keyboard+mouse, 5.1 woofer system, printer and possibly Vapochill all on one level. No pull out trays. Not that bothered though if the Vapo goes on the floor as long as it looks nice down there.

anyone got one they think id like?

nice desk that wouldnt take me 5mins to end up puttin my fist through it tho how much was it?

The desk cost about £300 in total including supports, I doubt you would put your fist through it as its 13mm of laminate toughned glass which can support 50 kg in the centre of a 2 metre long sheet.

I cant remember what the speakers are off hand, had them for years but they still kick ass, Altec Lansing make good kit.

sounds good, you should def turn the supports into a DVD/CD rack tho

the sound is great especially from my audigy card or my iPod. got some small pc speakers for rear chanels aswell!

Respect due. The stupid thing is, I've got a DTS amp sat here connected to the TV but due to the layout of the room the speakers are on the two wrong walls to use it with the PC. If you can understand, lol!

The thing is huge and I can finally route my cables out of the way, bit of a hassle organising the wires but its good now.

Your thoughts are always welcome

Erm, don't want to be picky or anything. But you spend 2 grand on a corner desk, and you can't actually sit in front of the monitor?

Course he can sit in front of it. He just can't get his legs under thats all.

I got it built to my spec, I like sitting at an angle to the monitor. When im not using the computer its out of the way so I have a huge space to do other work. Just personal preference

Why? Its the best desk I have ever seen/used. Certainly cant buy anything like this in the shops.

You smelt wrong, dunno why its hard to believe, we moved in recently and spent a fortune on decoarting and fitting so we wanted the best.

Nope, 2g for the desk. Mine was the cheapest, dad got an office fitted and sister got a custom wardrobe. So the house install came to a total of just short of £10,000.

Im sure you have heard of http://www.sharps.co.uk/. Those are the people we got it off, you get what you pay for.
