Gaming Computer desk?
« on: July 15, 2008, 09:12:25 PM »
Does anyone know of a computer desk that would suit us virtual combat pilots? NO, not a cockpit fuselage.

I use my cadenza that I got with my (executive size) desk.  I bought them both used at an office furniture store.  Admittedly mine weren't cheap (although still about 1/3-1/2 of what new would cost) as they were absolutely like new by a good manufacturer and made of mahogony but there are some pretty good prices on used stuff at those places.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

I simply went out bout about $65 worth of eood and made one :aok.  Heck of a lot sturdier than a pre-made desk for that price.

I use this cheap and effective, its just a desk not really specific to gaming

This is exactly what I have my computer set up on except this is the desk and it's a little deeper.  It fits my monitor, printer, router, audio transmitter, cable modem, two speakers, joystick and a fan with ease.  Computer and sub-woofer are underneath and I've got a pull out, adjustable keyboard/mouse tray attached.  I guess it was cherry, not mahogony:

I use the 'Jerker' from IKEA.  I have swivel shelves that I store my printer on.  It's pretty large, only problem is it has no drawers.  I could really use a drawer on this thing.  I'd post a pic but I'm at work and my desk is a mess :)
