• Desk or Monitor first?
    21 replies, posted
Yeah, this does have to do with computers, just think about it. Well, I've got a rig secured this summer, but I'm not sure which I should buy first: a $200 monitor or an Ikea desk. (undecided on the desk). Now, I'll say I've got things to tide me over until I can get either. I have a shitty half-plastic desk and a very small monitor without a stand (I use random cords to hang it on nails), so needless to say, I need an upgrade. I think I should go for the monitor first, then save up for a desk as it'd be more important to secure a good monitor first.
what is your monitor (links/pictures) and desk if the desk is too small and flimsy (aka you feel it's going to collapse) buy a new one
The desk will hold up, it's just peeling a bit and pretty small.
God your current set up sounds shit, a moniter hanging by nails and cords? Fuck.
And I can't get pictures, no camera, but both of them are 4+ years old. [editline]01:23AM[/editline] Wait, my cell. I'll get pics. [editline]01:25AM[/editline] No pics, cell's too dark.
Heh heh.
And I can't really get you a link because they're old as hell. I got 1 pic that was bright enough of my "stand" on my monitor.

[QUOTE=CaMpEr_DoOd;22522640]:lol::lol:[/QUOTE] Now you see my dilemma.
Shit, I guess you should get a desk first. You'll be able to set up your supply table there. (all your junk, drinks, food, etc...)

[QUOTE=Ninja_Duck;22522696]Shit, I guess you should get a desk first. You'll be able to set up your supply table there. (all your junk, drinks, food, etc...)[/QUOTE] I actually laughed pretty hard. Get a monitor.
Ikea's website won't let me look at the desks. :( And when I check last, all the good desks were gone. Anybody got any other suggestions?
staples walmart ect
[QUOTE=Armotekma;22522832]staples walmart ect[/QUOTE] Staples always has fantastic desk deals. If you get like a 50-100 dollar desk, you could still probably pick up a 19-21' monitor on craigslist.
Office Depot always has some really nice desks.
Every store besides Ikea that sells desks is overpriced.
ikea is pretty overpriced too
[QUOTE=ButtsexV2;22525268]ikea is pretty overpriced too[/QUOTE] No usually ikea is a good deal.
I think I decided on a desk from Staples. [url]http://www.staples.com/Z-Line-Designs-Belaire-Glass-L-Desk/product_750720?cmArea=sku_pd_box1[/url]
I may use your string idea if my bid on ebay was enough.
