I guess it goes in this thread :)

I'm looking for something with lots of surface area, whether it's L-shaped, C-shaped, or just a wide desk. Keyboard tray optional, doesn't matter to me although I am leaning towards no tray. Drawers/hutch on the side.. once again optional. I'm sure you guys are [H]ard enough to know a good desk when ye spot one. ;) (Would like it no more than $200, but willing to cough up $300) Would be utterly grateful if someone could recommend/link a desk or brand name.
 
If possible you should just go to ikea and get a flat table. Kind of like a rectangle dining table. They are cheap and you'll get a lot of space. Thats what I did
 
The JERKER from Ikea Comes To minds Here...

I have the Jerker. Two words: it's great.

Right price, right size, right setup. Could not be happier with a premade desk.
 
Thanks for all the info guys, helped a ton.

Wotblake, gorgeous desk, gonna do that most likely... but I don't know if my parents will let me drill some holes in their walls, I'm already on watch for practicing my throwing knives on the door(I don't get what was so bad though, they said they were replacing the door in a few weeks) =\

JERKER's look damn nice, if I buy a desk, gonna be this one.
 
You could always build some braces to hold it up that sit on the ground. I just wanted mine to be on the wall.

I use a mouse pad, but my mx518 works fine on the laminate also. Either way a optical/laser mouse will work no problem.
 
My current desk

Notice the horrible setup, my huge case wont fit under desk, and since my VGA to DVI converter doesn't have longe enough screws to screw into the port on my 7800GT, I cant move the case far at all or it falls out =\. So I'm stuck cramped. And my chair is stuck in the down position thanks to my fat brother.

No i don't keep my case open, was taking a series of pictures. Yes my carpet needs vacuumed, it broke yesterday when I was cleaning the hallway.. just stopped turning on! See how desperate I am for a new desk?! I cant even move without unplugging something!! I think my mom is gonna let me do the custom desk. But Might be a month =\
 
I went with a Jerker from Ikea about a year and a half ago. The desk space is awesome. I needed additional shelving area and got two leaning shelves to flank my desk. Best setup I have ever owned. Book storage space and a huge desktop. All at a very good price.
 
Nice U shaped desk, Damn bed keeps me from doing that...maybe I could do that, I'm too [H]ard for sleep.
