Heres my custom built desk I made last summer. I designed it for the 24 inch CRT fw900, but I made sure I could fit an upgrade down the road. I have the speakers on top to avoid interference with the monitor and with my computers. I use the PIP for my second computer, which just has some extra storage space on it and it has my Auzentech mystique sound card, which is what I use to connect to the receiver for music through the speakers.
Thanks, can't wait for it to come out. And if you didn't notice the wallpaper on my Samsung is an Audi R8 (it's what Tony Stark will be driving in the movie although the one I'm using is white because I think it looks better).
I got them at Aaron Brothers, they're currently having a sale where it's Buy One Get One for 1 Cent. I originally only had the first 3 posters but after coming home with 4 frames I caved and picked up the Spidey poster.
=D the problem is that then you want to paint your room (which isn't really a bad thing but still).Im thinking of getting some huge movie posters

Meh, with all these crazy hard guys, you never know what they might get up to with their computers... :O

It's nothing special, and can't begin to compare with the majority of the setups here, but I don't think it's too shabby for a broke, newly 18 year old juggling college, a part time job, and gaming.
A few things to note:
-The walls and carpeting are older than dirt, which is why they look like dirt. Within the next month I'll be tearing up the carpet to install hardwood and repainting the walls.
-I hate wires just as much as the rest of you, but since the room will be gutted within the month I'm not going to bother using zip ties to fasten the wires in place until everything is settled.
-The TV and monitor are both hooked to my PC for use as dual monitors. The game displayed on the TV is COD4 (PC version.)
-The G5/G15 combo is for use with gaming when I sit up close - don't like wireless for my shooters. The MX Revolution/diNovo Edge are for casual, relaxed usage and scooting back in my Poang or laying in bed watching movies/tv shows.
Ask if you have any questions.

How many $ are on that photo
Just cleaned up my room and decided to take a pic. (actually a few photos stitched)
That desk looks like an awesome work desk for computers.
I was actually going to post the same thing. Did you buy that or make it? I am looking for something similar that would be able to hold my PC, 22" and 20" monitors, as well as have a place for my 2 laptops and some desk space to do work.
It is a really nice work bench. I can work on my computer, do homework or pile a bunch of shit on it.
My dad and I made it. Its about 8 feet long and 2 feet deep. It has a long power strip on the back for easy power access. This summer I am probably going to put a deeper top on it.

I would like to know what kind of desk is the black framed one?? I know the other is from ikea.
Yay for the tube frame Wally World Desk!! I used to have that same thing. I hated it.
Anywho, here's my setups:
2006:
Parents
2007:
Living with my buddy about a mile from campus.
2008:
Recently moved in with the GF into a single bedroom APT, so here's our setups...(Still cleaning when I took this) I don't even have my Z5500's hooked up yet! ugh
I'd like to know as well. I've been looking for a desk similar to the Jerker forever, and the Fredrik doesn't seem sturdy enough to me.
I think they are both jerkers, the black one being an older model.

yeah its an older jerker
The Hypermotard, 1098 and 848 came from the Ducati dealership my brother works at. The Bridgestone one came from a WERA race.. or maybe it came from the dealership too.. You interested in one?
haha, thanks. Its really nice much more then a big piece of plywood with 4 legs..
The black one is a really old model of the Ikea Jerker (same model as the lighter colored one).
Find them on craigslist!!
Hey W4R10CK... if your using XP you'll need to download XPize to make 'em that big... I think that's the only program (not completely sure)...but if you're using Vista... just hold the CTRL key and scroll the mouse wheel up while on your desktop (works inside folders too).
I bought the mounts from klipsch and used two screws to mount them thru the wholes.

Thought I should post one of my real workstation now that we are in our new digs.
I work in a Regional Network Operations Center.
There are 9 40" LCDs on the front wall. My workstation has 6 20" LCDs
