re: Looking for a new home office desk - Suggestions?

What's wrong with L or R-shaped desks? I'm really interested, tell me. I spent months looking at desks from the eurekaergonomic.com catalog to finally choose one of the models. I was specifically looking for an L-shaped desk without drawers because it's the perfect work-and-play space for me. And now, when I see such hate for tables of this shape, I'm confused. How is a huge oak desk with six drawers better than a minimalist desk with a large work surface?
