Re: Computer Desk Suggestions
Does anyone know where I can buy a Jerker? I can't find them for sale anywhere.

Re: Computer Desk Suggestions
Seriously, the best desks are simple and have tons of space.
The jerker fits this nicely - you can get a version without the shelf on the top too ( I think the top shelf makes it look kind of ugly ). The jerker is from Ikea. You can usually find them on craigslist as well. The KK audio desk looks almost perfect, but my guess is that it's fairly expensive. |

Re: Computer Desk Suggestions
#1 most important thing for a serious computer desk is easy height adjustability. Ikea has several different height adjustable desks for cheap; some nicer stores also have them but they're very price.
#2 most important thing is that the desktop between your knees and hands should be VERY THIN. Most of the so-called "good" desks totally screw this up which makes them completely useless for serious computer users. eg. pretty much all of the big solid hard wood desks have giant thick tops with drawers and junk above your knees which is so retarded and non functional. BTW is it just me or does that house look like it was designed for munchkins!? |

Re: Computer Desk Suggestions
if you can't find one that you like, you could always find a friend/exroommate who is good with wood and stuff to make you one <font color="white">with a lathe</font>

Re: Computer Desk Suggestions
Seriously, is the lathe guy coming with you this time? If not, how were you able to break up with him?
I think we all deserve to know. |

Re: Computer Desk Suggestions
Ended up getting two 6' Samsonite folding tables with hard plastic tops. Put them up against two connecting walls with a fridge and TV in between. Worked out great. Soooo much working space even with two monitors and a laptop on it.

No way he was coming with. I thought about getting him to design a desk, but needed something quick. I may hire him to build a poker table though. |

Ikea had discontinued actually selling them from their web site at that time, as I recall. I think you could go as far as adding it to your cart before they said you couldn't buy it. Anyway, you can still get them, but on a store by store basis. Pretty oddly dispersed, when I looked. |
