    Can anyone recommend an awesome big desk and setup? Im shopping for one. What do you have?

    Im moving into a 1 bedroom apartment and decided not to have a living room, im just going to make it into a big fucking office, so I want a nice big big desk.


    I LOVE this up and down motor but they dont sell it in America


    so nice!



    I like Ikea and went today and was looking, they had some nice ones
    this is nice, its 7.8 feet LONG, notice the extension piece on the right.

    http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/pr...44/#/S49807845
    and then put one of these under it
    http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10192824/


    Or this is good, its 6 feet long
    http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/S79857848/


    they have this which is nice and long, but a little narrow at only 23 inches wide

    What do you have? Do you love your desk?

      I use a 6 foot utility desk. I have two of them. Sounds ghetto, but they work real nice and are dirt cheap.

                  Why is there not like a "defacto" standard desk that we all use because it's the best.

                  Seems really weird.

                      They suck when you have to use a keyboard on one, not a very good height, at least for me. I used one of these for a long time and my wrists were always killing me.

                              Here's my alternate, but no room for my feet... Really not as practical as it might seem.

                                          An obvious STEAL at $7,200. Practically giving it away.

                                              I have two of those, only they have wooden tops, that I put together in the corner of the room to form a version of a corner desk. I love it. The tables I have are just the right height and I have the dual monitors in the corner, tower to the right, printer to the right of that then to the left I basically have one full table that is empty. I bought a couple of plastic drawers to put on it for storage and it is great.

                                              Over the years I have had a few different desks and I love this one the most even if it is really just two tables and not an actual desk.

                                                          I just moved into a 2 bedroom from a 1 bedroom as I wanted a dedicated office. Bought a glass topped simple but nice desk years ago from best buy. Was gonna upgrade it to a new one as I got rid of a bunch of shit and been buying new shit but when I bought my new surround sound computer speakers and entertainment center best buy had like zero computer desks so decided to stick with it until I get time to browse online. I got a thing for glass= end table, entertainment center, computer desk etc... I'll snap some pics of my simple mini loft once I organize this bitch over the next week or two.
