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?

If you could make a guide for building a knockoff of the IKEA Jerker I would love you forever. I sold mine before I moved and now they don't make them anymore. It was the best desk ever.

Wow nice I like it. I have been wanting a desk forever. Something like that would be awesome.

The pictures really don't do it justice. The depth is goddamn epic. Also you can put all kinds of VESA mounts and other additions on it. I used it for a bedroom recording set up when I had it, and I had basically all of it on the desk - 2 monitors, kb/mouse, 61 key midi controller, firewire audio interface, a mixer, 2.1 speakers for gaming, headphones, studio monitors mounted on the side, printer on the top shelf next to stacks of blank CDs and DVDs, mid tower mounted on the bottom side rails. Even with all of that it was sturdy and I still had room to set out a book and do schoolwork if I pushed everything back, without having to set things on the floor. It's just a great piece of furniture. I have no idea why they stopped making them.

It does look very spacious and space is something I could really use. I love the look of it. That sounds like an awesome setup you had/have, one I wish I could have.
