Anyone have one of these...

Looks nice and its cheap but I wonder how stable it is since it doesn't use screws or bolts.

[Apologies for the double post. MacNN forums have been pretty troubled recently with many pages failing to load at first.]

Until we get a 3 lbs sub-PowerBook, the 12-inch PowerBook will do.

I don't have one. But these Legare desks looks way cool. I love the way they're assembled without any hardware (just wood panels). Check out the QuickTime desk-assembly movies on their site!

You could always slap in a couple of wood screws discreetly if you were concerned about that. However, they are built for computers, and they (presumably) know how heavy a 21" CRT can be...


To choose doubt as a philosophy of life is akin to choosing immobility as a means of transportation.

meah, in that QT movie of that guy putting the desk together, it seemed kinda wobly. but i would have to see one in person in order to judge from it.


Hey if you got any skills with a router and a table saw, you can make one of those very easly, make a jig few jigs and you can be mass producing those things so fast.

hell its just baltic birtch ply wood (which is very strong and light). And it fits together like a puzzle.

just remember measure twice cut once!
