Ajacks as a celebration I think you should post more pics of your setup :smile:
I'm wondering if I should get a large L desk (about 4 by 2.5 meters) or a really long 'Ajacks style' desk, any ideas? Also, would two 24" monitors or a single 27" with a side 18.5" screen be better?
personal preference and it depends on the room/what you're doing with it.

[QUOTE=Ajacks;27784384]I've never personally been partial to towers on the desk, it just takes up desk space that could be used for work, acts as a radiant space heater and adds unnecessary noise. But hey, I'm a fan of hiding things away.[/QUOTE] I'm constantly elbows deep in my PC internals so I guess for me it's just a convenience reason. [editline]1st February 2011[/editline] Also I went to ikea this past weekend, nope not for a desk, CABINETS! I got myself some nice new cabinets to hang over my desk aswell as the new Galant cable management trays. Will post pics next weekend when I actually install it.

[QUOTE=EBS-Gamer;27799393]Saitek Eclipse is best the best keyboard[/QUOTE] it's served me well. one of the back legs snapped off but they made it so that they can just snap back in, fucking awesome
My arrow keys don't always respond and it doesn't save backlight colour through power cycles... I'm wanting to replace it.
I'm not really a fan of wooden desks. Steel and glass all the way!
Steel and glass are both expensive. I don't think most people have the budget :v:
Glass is definitely cheaper than steel and wood; high quality wood anyway.
[QUOTE=Odellus;27806685]Glass is definitely cheaper than steel and wood; high quality wood anyway.[/QUOTE]That's what I have. Steel and Nice non hollow wood with a nice black finish. I love this new desk.
100% wood is pretty fucking cash only piece of wood on my desk is the handles to the drawers. the guides and everything is solid wood. it's incredibly expensive to make because they have to be hand made for the tight tolerances but it's definitely a worthy investment.
[QUOTE=Nipa;27806451]Steel and glass are both expensive. I don't think most people have the budget :v:[/QUOTE] Some of us have the money for that :smug: Seriously though, I just prefer the futuristic appearance and texture of glass and steel to wood finishes.

my feet get cold :(
Might have to redesign my desk. the PDP-11 along with its disk and tape drive weigh over 200 pounds and the shelf won't hold that. I might also ahve to run a cord to another circuit in the house as my room's circuit is maxed.
