The Genius at the Apple store I went to said it would work with XP but not with Vista.

The apple wireless keyboards work great in vista and xp. You just need to get a copy of the apple bootcamp software from leopard to make the volume buttons work.

How the hell do you people stand having your chair that far below the desk, particularly on a desk that goddamned shallow?

I'm in love with those Eames aluminum group chairs, great choice. I have a management chair at work with the soft-pad high back in black leather. If I wasn't working 10 hour days as of late, I'd take it home with me...

i dont think ive ever sat in one of the soft pads, they look soft

We're about to move into a new house in a few months here and my S.O. really wants me to find a computer desk that hides my cables and is really clean. Ideally she'd like me to just go get an iMac but I'm a PC guy through and through so I refuse.

Are there any decent PC desk companies out there that make clean modern desks that take cable management into consideration? Everything I'm finding has sample photos of just iMac's with no visible speakers and wireless keyboard & mouse. Unfortunately I don't have the luxury of going that minimal.

This is the best PC desk "system" I've been able to find so far but I don't think their keyboard drawer will fit my G15. http://www.smartfurniture.com/bdi/bdioffice.html

Has anyone seen any better drool-worthy PC desks?

Please don't get a new iMac. They are loving glued shut.

Serious answer: have you considered maybe trying to downsize your rig? There are great looking Mini-ITX and Micro-ITX cases that can handle *serious gaming setups* and take up a fraction of the space of a full size tower.

Yep. This is my Silverstone SG05 with a GTX760 and an i5-3570.

This same desk is at a local open box store for $260. Is it worth it?

Renate desk? gently caress. I paid $525.

It's very sturdy and feels solid. If it matches your style then yes I would go buy it.

Yep that's the one. Been eyeballing it a few weeks now. Its a store that buys up open items from amazon and overstock and places.

Nothing too special. Cheap desk (free, actually), old laptop, a not pictured but free chair that my next door neighbor was getting rid of, and a mysterious wire at the top.

That monitor totally doesn't look like its going to fall off.

Well I always think minimal is best, especially so when it comes to fans. I tried a similar setup with my case but I wasn't happy with the temperatures, so I ended up knocking out the grills and using a dremel to smooth out the rough edges. Airflow got better and it actually got a bit quieter, but I wanted a bit less noise so I bought some Noctua fans to help with that.

Make sure you spend the extra on noctua PWM fans. They can run as low as 200-300rpm

Still not crazy happy about the setup (I'm looking for a new desk and chair), but it will do for now.

Whats with the right channel speaker being completely misplaced compared to the other two?

Anyone have any suggestions for cable management running along the backside of a desk lip that is about 1" thick?

You can get velcro ties with a screw hole in them.

It was incredibly stable with my qnix 2710 which was the main reason i got it. The factory stand was very wobbly.

Room size: 25m2/270square feet.. Glass table being replaced next week, acoustic bass traps incoming. Listening position about 3m from speakers.

Edit: Added some room info. Picture is poo poo. Will post a new one when I get new table and acoustics stuff up.

Those speakers should be on top of the desk for the best imaging.
