waaaaaaaaaaay too expensive. i do like the pillow sack though. cool idea for a barracks room such as mine but not for those prices.
so cool,man
Here's my desk in 2004...
... and here's the same desk now...
2009 iMac, dual tuner EyeTV stick, 2x LaCie D2 external drives, Swan M50W speakers, Time Capsule and.. uh... a few other bits and pieces.
The desk is 2m x 2m and originally cost me $100 (delivered!). It winds up and down, has runners for the cabling and powerboards (so it's all quite tidy), is rock solid, but weighs a ton and strikes fear into the hearts of furniture removalists.

Quite simply, WHERE DID YOU GET THAT DESK??? Is it installed to the wall? I couldn't help to notice that that leg can't be strong enough to hold everything, right? Is it wobbly?
The desk is formerly a cubicle dweller at an Aussie Telco (Telstra). A friend's boss had sixteen of them in his shed that were taking up space - hence the $100 price tag (inc. delivery).
The legs are steel - only 2" wide but 7" deep - and the desk is solid as a rock - no wobbles (and I often climb on it to reach the back corner). Not bolted to the wall, but it feels like it.
The runners inside are 6" wide by 6" deep around the whole desk. If I open them up...
... you can see there's loads of room for wires'n'stuff. I have powerboards with "bricks" on them hidden in there.
I can't imagine ever buying a new desk.
While I'm at it, here's my 11y/o's desk - a chip off the old block.

very nice. its like a gift shop b/c you keep all the boxes out in the open. what do you do for a living and are you hiring? i want every apple product too (i have the beats, xbox and all that good stuff) but I just got my first MBP a couple months ago... i love it, and i also love your space.

It's like awesome.. But how do you keep clean all those models from dust? Must be a nighmare
It's just an old Officeworks chair. I'm on the hunt for an Aeron (or maybe a barber's chair).
