[QUOTE="Dayvidpriddy, post: 1646976, member: 345560"] I have been looking for a good solid wood desk for a couple of weeks now for my upcoming iMac purchase...I'm not trying to spend a fortune but I wanted solid wood and not fiberboard or anything hollow. The only design I liked that was solid wood (that didn't cost an arm and a leg) was at IKEA...this is what I ended up going with: [url=http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/60261037/]ARKELSTORP Desk - IKEA[/url] I just got it yesterday, have not assembled it yet, it's 55" wide (left to right/right to left) by just under 28" in depth (front to back/back to front.) It's still sitting boxed in my bedroom right now and every time I look at it I keep questioning myself...is this big enough for this size of a computer? I have looked at other people's setups on different forums and some have desks that are only 19" in depth and they are sporting this monster on that so I'm guessing I'm good to go? It doesn't mention max weight load for some reason but other desks from IKEA that are not wood show max loads of 50 plus pounds so I'm assuming my iMac's weight should be no issue at all? What do you guys think? [/QUOTE]
