I've been wanting to try a glass desk for ages. Every wooden desk I've ever had ends up looking bad within a year -- mainly because the top surface begins to rub off.

Can anyone recommend a nice looking, fairly simple glass computer desk? The ones I've always seen have been either too small, cheap looking, or funky looking. Preferably, it wouldn't have a keyboard slide out and be fairly large (atleast 40", up to about 70"). An L shape is ok, but if straight would be nicer.

That's my glass desk, love it to bits. Sadly I have a tiny room but I make do. Also that's my old setup. Now I have the new screens and machines.

Seems to be a nice desk. Classy wood look but with the glass top.

I've owned a lot of desks through the years and I just got this 1 in October and I love it. You can get the glass in black like the 1 I have or smoked or just plain clear. http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=walker+edison+soreno&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-USfficial&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=6796327371351641033&sa=X&ei=K3IXT4maEOKHsgLVj9nvAQ&ved=0CEsQ8wIwAA Also its really sturdy as you can see.

Why not get a custom cut piece of glass for the top of your current desk and refinish the wood so it looks better?

I always wanted a glass desk also... they are hard to keep clean or maybe I'm just a scuzz, like 2-3 times a day I'm cleaning off smudges and crumbs, my old laminated crap wood desk maybe once a month whether it needed it or not.

The keyboard tray is pretty massive but my monitor seems kinda small, and my eyes suck so I gotta get close.

I just posted this pic on the keyboard forum, but I got this desk at target for like $70 I think:
