Basically for a pc/monitor/tower/printer.

Try Space 2

I have one of these:



More expensive than Argos but better quality and it could take a 21" monitor!

I got my more traditional desk / draw unit on wheels from Office World. Proper thick wood, weighs a ton, but wasn't too expensive. Bought a unit that goes at the side to house the two CPUs, printer and scanner.

Seems every time I go into Office World, all the desk units are on sale.

Cheers

Got the jerker desk years ago - must be 7 at least. Survived 4 moves, daily abuse and still looks as good as new.

Can also reccommend the Space2 stuff, have had a TV/AV unit of theirs for a while and that has held up brilliantly.
