BeadBoard Outlet Desk: Love It or Leave It?
Used to be (well, still is), you had a desk and you just figured out how to plug your electronic life into it, particularly laptop cords and such. Nowadays you can get furniture that's built for such modern uses, like Pottery Barn's Beadboard Space Saving Desk ($500), which features a five-plug outlet in the cabinet.
It's like having a charging station built in to your desk, and the drawers slide both ways, so there's no jerry-rigging necessary to get your tech organized on it.
Maximize Your Dorm Room Space With a Laptop Shelf
There's no fighting it — back to school time is here. I've already shown you ways to stylishly carry your laptop, ways to make your studying environment more ergonomic, and which gadgets to toss in your new Fall bag, so here's a simple and cheap way to keep your dorm nice and neat.
From Ikea (one of my favorite places to shop, by the way), this PS Laptop Workstation ($60) allows you to get your term paper written without having to use your bed as a work station, and keeps all your desk essentials in one compact space.
One Less Desk Is One More Desk I Want
I have a hard time keeping my desk clean already, but this desk would have a problem staying clear of my drool. It's that pretty. Sure, it's spare and simple, but it's not lacking in the right kind of details.
Ludvig Joins My Roster of Ikea Things I Cannot Live Without
Another day, another awesome geek product provided by Ikea. What is it with this place lately? It's like it wants you to always have a convenient spot to put your laptop!
Connect-a-Desk: Totally Geeky or Geek Chic?
The Connect-a-desk is not the first time I've seen a desk-free laptop desk — remember the Lindo wrap-around hip desk? That was voted "freakish" by a landslide, and ThinkGeek's version hasn't really made the concept any more palatable.
For 40 bucks, you get the ability to walk around while using your laptop, but for $40, you may suddenly not know yourself anymore.
Ikea's Cheap, Petite Mikael — Can I Call You Mike?
Since I'm on an Ikea kick with the Benno faux-mount TV stand, I thought I'd bring you another useful piece of home tech.
The Mikael desk would fit right into my place — I still love the convenience of my Dave stand, but sometimes I really get more done sitting at a desk.
And though the pic shows how great the Mikael is for a desktop computer, I'd use it for my laptop, and totally increase the usefulness — when I'm not laptopping, I can do my bills there or use it for my sewing machine!
AMP Speaker/Desk: Love It or Leave It?
I had to do a double take when I learned that this AMP speaker system by Pieter Maes could also be used as a desk. Is it just me or does the white laptop look like a DS Lite? I literally thought the desk was two feet tall and totally impractical—I could easily throw in a Zoolander quote here but I'll keep this one kind.
Do You Keep Personal Photos On Your Work Desk?
To be honest, I actually don't have any photos on my desk. It's not that I'm consciously trying to keep my workzone "personal pic free," its just that I'm a total clutterphobe who tries to keep desktop items to a bare minimum. I swear I'm open to the possibility of having a simple frame with a photo or two.
Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? iGo Mac Desk
Have you seen these new minimalistic iGo desks for the iMac and Mac mini? At first I thought the zero desk space is just a bad idea, but then I realized that most of my calendars, planners, to do lists and notes are now on the computer anyways. Ranging in price from $333 to $500, the iGo desk is now available for iMac G4 and 17" and 20" iMac (Intel Core Duo and G5).
Sexy Mini Desk - My Geeky Valentine
I spotted this adorably fantastic Mini Desk on Uncrate and just had to share it. While the price hasn't been determined yet, the design is made from an original British mini and can be hand-built to meet your specifications or needs.
You get to choose the color of the desk top, car color, rims, tires, and license plates.
