I'm after some suggestions, please, as to the best place to find a corner PC desk. Having just moved house, our old desk looks horribly out of place in our new living room, so we're looking for a new desk. The only real place where the 'puter will fit is in the corner of the room, so we're sourcing one of those corner desk type thingies.

Here's the places I've checked so far: Argos, Office World, Ikea & Index, but none of these have what we're looking for (they have corner desks but only ugly ones :(). Can anyone suggest any places that I haven't thought of. TIA :)

Had a quick look and cant find much.
Have you had a look HERE (http://www.kelkoo.co.uk/ctl/do/search?siteSearchQuery=corner+desk&x=0&y=0)
They might list a couple of shops there.

I recommend Viking (http://www.viking-direct.co.uk). They have a good selection, usually the cheapest around, etc.

What size and price range are looking for, some well priced ( cheapish ) one's at staples and mfi, nearly bought one of the mfi one's myself, but reallocated the space to be of more use, me i'm now stuck in a chiminey breast alcove at the mo :(

Ikea do some damn good computer desks in their business furniture range. Its VERY sturdy stuff too and very much mix and match
