Desk / workstation for PC

Hi there,

I'm looking for 2 low priced small ish PC workstations - I've seen some for £25+ in Argos, anyone know of any others that are cheaper or have I found the best deal there?

Advice and tips greatly appreciated.

    If you're local to ikea, you can't beat those for quality and usability. Might be worth looking at the table and leg combinations - you can mix and match and a whole variety of shapes and sizes are there. £25/£30 should get you something decent.

    Having used cheap workstations before (and at £25 they will be cheap and nasty!) - they are fine for the odd 10 minute spells, but I found them very uncomfortable to use for anything longer than that. Having said that, I'm a bit fussy and like plenty of legroom etc!

    If you look at the Argos clearance web site they have got quite a few, from prices as low as £16!!!

    Thanks all

    I've got a few ideas now! Fair enough about price & comfort - has anyone got any reccomendations for a comfy one that I can use for a few hours at a time?

    Thanks again
