Don't have space for a Jerker, so considering one of these. I like the look, but saw it in person and it's VERY flimsy, seem people have to tape the shelf boards to the frame, and all sorts of funky stuff.

Anyone have an idea of how I can better fortify this desk to minimize shaking?

I really don't mind butchering it here and there.

If I cant figure this out I might consider another desk (black/darksilver?) that fits the bill if you have recommendations.

Had to be sort of small made for an LCD monitor, and not much wider than 4.5 feet or so.
 
You can build your own desk with Ikea's parts. They have various sizes for the tabletops, and either fixed height or adjustable legs, so check out the ikea site. Here's my old setup...

If you want the same size desk without the keyboard drawer, I'd recommend the tabletop/legs combo from Ikea: Vika Amon/Vika Curry

$20 - Tabletop: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/60117016
Length: 47 1/4 "
Width: 23 5/8 "
Thickness: 1 3/8 "
Max. load: 110 lb 4 oz

$20 ($5 x 4) - Legs: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90105291
Diameter: 2 "
Height: 27 1/2 "

They have other size tabletops, too. This is my old setup:
