    Good Computer Desk

    Does anyone know where to get a good computer desk? I'm looking for a full size office style, ergonomic (left hand curved) desk, but don't want to have to pay £200 odd.

    I live near Worthing (South Coast) so if anyone knows of a good local shop, or online store I'd appreciate it.

    i think its best to buy just a big ass desk and then get the little boxes that go on top .. its extremely customisable this way

    qft I have one and it's great. Sturdy, not too expensive and loads of room. You can buy loads of different add-ons to it as well. I got mine with a monitor stand and an extra shelf.

    Computer desks should really be aimed at enthusiasts more, I think theres a gaping hole in the market for them. My desk of choice would probably be an Ikea Jerker...
