We found a collection of desks that are a great for laptops specifically. There are many desks that work well with laptops but these in particular allow you to hide your laptop behind closed doors. You can conceal other small items behind them as well.

Before you purchase a laptop computer desk, just be sure to measure the dimensions (especially the depth of your laptop) and compare it to the desk, to make certain it will fit (once the door of the desk is closed).

We work hard to give our homes distinctive, signature style. The sofa complements the credenza which really sets off the light fixture which looks incredible on the end table which really pulls the whole room together. And then there’s the computer. Just sitting there.

Sometimes the cold, hard look of technology doesn’t fit in with our home’s aesthetic. The Home Styles Hanover Compact Computer Armoire is here to help. Cherry-finished hardwood and brushed nickel hardware on the outside; computer drawers, shelves, trays, and storage on the inside.

The file drawer accommodates legal and letter size files. Open the doors when you need your computer, then just swing them shut to turn your house back into a home.

Homestyles offers some really cool compact desks. What’s great about them? They can do double-duty. Use them as a TV stand and a desk.

The monitor can double as a television and the desk can serve as a TV stand when not in use. My advice is to get a nice sized high definition screen that can serve as a monitor and a TV.

Or if you just want to use a basic monitor, you can purchase a TV tuner for it. This will allow you to use it like a basic TV and hook your DVD player up to it and so forth.

Or if you just like it simple, just use it to watch shows available on the net. Try Hulu for free movies and TV shows. However, be aware that graphics on your monitor may not be as good as a basic TV. Depends on your monitor.

As for chairs, using folding chairs that you can stow away when you’re not sitting at the desk. That’s at least one idea.
