Here's mine. I love it so far although my dusty room really shows on the black surface. The only accessories I got for it were the holders for CDs on the left and the magazine ones on the right.

Other accessories available were a swinging table that could be attached to the side v-bars and an extension shelf to put on the top. Table is really sturdy and I recommend it! :)

Only gripe is that it doesn't have much storage space. (No shelves or drawers)

It's definetly a nice desk.

So that swing out table that a lot of the Jerkers have are not standard with the desk? Would you reccomend them?
 
Yeah they're definitely super handy to have. But I didn't get any because as you can see in my pic, my table is right next to the window, so no space and I can't have a couple of swinging shelves right above my bed. :)

Hmm, I'll be reorganizing my room if I get a Jerker, so I might hold off on getting those until after I've figured out my new setup.

The bare columns look really out of place since I moved the upper shelf and made it my dispaly shelf. I understand Ikea sells extensions so I may pick one up and add one on top to increase to put other stuff. This is a good desk, but a bit small. You can see how there isn't much room with 2 monitors on. $150 Canadian is what I paid 2 years ago.

I got the next level up... one of the office lines. It cost me about $400 Canadian.

I'll probably get a Jerker soon for my sister's computer and another for my room as a study table.

That's nice, but $400 including the chair and organizer beneath the table, too? Otherwise it wouldn't be worth it. My brother bought a solid mohogany or something like that desk at Office Depot for about the same money and this thing is a monster, but stury and beautiful. BTW, where did you get the Audi poster? I'd love to get one.

rayman2k2, its a Samsung 191T/N. I use the T with the digital connection for gaming, but the minimal ghosting is about the same on either one.
 
Haha, my desk has such a crappy name. I'll post a picture in the morning when I get around to cleaning everything up. Err, morning is relative to when I wake, so later in the day.

Edit:

I think it cost me $150 CAD. Which, at that time, was about $100 USD.

rayman2k2,

I noticed that you have what I think is IKEA's wire management hanger/basket thing lying on the floor under the desk in that picture. Is there any reason that you are not using it? I was thinking about picking up one or two ... okay 5 ... of them to use in my new office that I just got finished in my house. My only reservations were that I did not know how sturdy they were or how ultimately useful as a means of wire management Can you give me your $0.02 on the matter? I have also tried to find some inexpensive 2' lengths of panduit or the like to use as well, but no luck after a mediumly aggressive search.

Thanks

Hey Ronin, I know this doesnt go with the desk question but, are both your monitors hooked up to the same pc? If so is that one wallpaper or 2 different ones? If 2 different ones how did you do it?

You can use two different wall papers by setting the second one up as an active desktop item, and dragging it to the second monitor and selecting "cover desktop". It looks like he may be using UltraMon though (third-party software to do things like that if you don't want to mess with it).
 
i wish i had this desk still. i just moved to north carolina from cali. and im having some of my stuff shipped. and i dont think i will be able to get it shipped UPS. or i will have to pay a boat load of money to have it shipped. i havnt found a ikea close to my house yet.:(
 
here's mine, got it off the 'as-is' corner in ikea, took about 30% off the list price as well. excellent condition, only a few dents on the tabletop.

I'm ordering my Jerker today. I think I'm just going to get the regular Jerker table. I can save some money and add extras later.
 
I'm pondering if I should get a Jerker desk, with a bunch of those swivel shelves. I have two questions.

1. Can anyone show me (link?) where to get another long shelf, like the one that goes accross the top.

2. I'm a hardcore racing simluation nut, so will I be able to put my Momo wheel on the contour. Can anyone get me an underneath picture.

I checked the ikea website....They used to have that long shelf on there. i don't see it anymore. It was $30CDN when I bought one.

As far as the steering wheel....if you look at the middle of the curve, underneath and about 1.5 inches back, there is a 1"x1" metal bar supporting the front of the desk. The steering wheel might have some problems clamping on but then again Im not sure how the wheel mounts.

Curious, how are you ordering yours ? Are you having it shipped to you ? They quoted me about $200 to ship it like 200 miles. I'm planning on making a trip to get one this weekend.
 
Yeah, lol, they were charging me the same thing for shipping so I guess I'm not having it shipped. Might take a trip to get one.
