i was just wondering what everybody was using as a computer/workstation desk. im looking for one right now, but i was hoping someone could point me in the direction of one thats ergonomic and has a well designed layout. thanks everybody
 
If you live locally to Ikea, it's honestly the best bet. You can almost completely customize your workstation.

I'm using a Galant 64" wide, 34" deep table with a second 42" by 34" table top mounted on it. Then I took two file drawer cabinet faceplates and screwed legs one of their mini tables into them for two monitor stands. I also put a keyboard tray on one end of the workstation for my wife, because well she likes those things. :/ lol

There's plenty of space with TWO people at the workstation, it'd probably be overkill for one person.

If you don't live local to ikea, check officemax, staples and officedepot out. All three have pretty neat contemporary workstations.
 
This is my desk. It's like sitting at a dining room table but I have tons of work space and I love it. Pricey, you bet, but now that I have it I have to say it's the best money I've spent. Absolutely love it. Mine has the maple butcher block top. Screw glass.

I was going to get this one, but the price was just a bit too much more. Sick looking desk IMO.

Another vote for Ikea. I've been using a single-tiered Jerker desk for the last five years and still love it. I think it cost me $79CDN and it's very solid - metal frame/legs. I use a monitor arm instead of shelves/risers to keep the desk surface clear and the PC is on a separate drawer unit that's the same height as the desk.

That Manhattan Workcenter is nice, but $1100 is ludicrous IMO.
 
yeah, ive seen a lot of ikea desks on craigslist. maybe thats the way to go. there was one other brand of desk that i saw that i really loved. i think the name of the brand is Comfort Zone. its listed as a producer/recording/computer desk. it looks really nice. maybe i have a trip to ikea ahead of me for this weekend. thanks guys
