Default Re: New desk suggestions

I was at Office Depot the other day and they have something very similar (maybe identical) to this. I decided that I didn't like it because: 1) I hate keyboard trays, 2) the table isn't very deep, 3) the piece with the keyboard tray is too small for 2 big monitors, 4) it didn't seem sturdy enough.

The furniture makers have no idea what a computer workstation should look like. I had a great one in my office in my last job--I think my illustrious predessor had it custom made. It was an L with legs about 4' and 6', but deeper than most desks/workstations. It was made out of particle board (with sort of a kitchen countertop veneer) and weighed a ton. Getting something like this made would be pretty expensive.
