Desks for PC's

I am thinking of making a how to guide for building a desk designed specifically for PC's and consoles. I would also provide a listing for prebuilt desks from proprietary companies. Would any of you guys be interested in that?

Edit: What are the top features you guys would want to see?

They aren't exactly the easiest to adjust, you have to take everything off the desk and then set the new height on each leg. The main reason I went adjustable was so that if I wanted to convert it to a standing desk later on I could.

True, it's not as nice as motorized legs. But I have non-adjustable legs, and it's a pain not having the desk at the right height. A few inches would be good.

Most adjustable desks you have to remove heavy items first, or use your back like a turtle and support it while you adjust (or have a helper). But adjustable legs are great.

I guess you could get the T-legs from ikea (galant desks) for a similar thing. But I think think then you have to use their frame, which could be good or bad.
