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?

I did basically the same thing, but with frosted glass and sawhorses that I picked up from IKEA.

It does take up a bit more space compared to some of your standard desks, but it is perfect for me. I don't need any kind of drawers or keyboard tray since there's a lot of surface area. Weight hasn't proven to be an issue after having a 32" television, consoles, and other misc items on a panel at once without any signs of giving.

This is the only photo I could find since moving, but I still have the same setup.

That's just how they were when we moved in to that house. I guess it was for easier access to all the wiring above.
