    Furniture123 have a lowest price guarantee - so should beat office world - and they do free delivery too! Mind you, they do say on their site
    Please note that we reserve the right not to uphold the price promise if doing so would result in Furniture123 making a loss.
    Life should be a little nuts; otherwise it's just a bunch of Thursdays strung together.

    I understand that Office World are being taken over by Staples so I can only think that they are reducing a lot of their stock as they have had a sale on recently, so maybe that's why, there's a big difference between £159 and £29.99, apparently it's a great desk but large
  • Unless the back's open on this, then I'd be very wary of overheating - got to have a good airflow for the fans to vent air at the back.

    Also worrying that they confuse the case and the CPU in the description on the furniture123 site.
