dont you have food and drinks on your desk?:O you are clearly using it wrong then

Sure I do, on that (relatively big) area next to my desktop tower.
Are you confusing desk with nightstand?

I don't have much on this desk, apart from the tower at the edge of the table. I suppose it is a little cramped, but I only have a small old 60Hz 1280×1024 flat panel window to view this crazy virtual social media, next to an equally old all-in-one print-scanner that no longer prints, in case I need to memorialize a (paper) receipt, as for important asset purchases like new computers. (I have had the odd drink on this table but I must have spilt the last cup of tea because there is a residue ring that needs effacing, which has deterred me from repeating this more often, more recently.)

In the blacked-out bedroom we have a full-HD smart television connected to my new (last year's model) laptop that I also use for gaming, in addition to the DVD player we use to watch over 700 movies, films and television series that we have accumulated over the last dozen years or so.

I have a special desk for my PC where the monitor is on top and my keyboard and mouse is on a sliding tray just below the desk and then the PC itself is near the floor on a little shelf connected to the desk.

People have different priorities. I have a big computer desk in the living room, because I spend a lot of time at it and it's important to me.

Main Rig - This desk was made by my sister in law for my birthday many years ago. It's a custom standing/sitting desk with a hydraulic release to go up and down with a sunken desktop area that holds my KM+M along with two Cable Guy holders (Ryu and Chun-Li) holding two Logitech F310 controllers. It's like an overgrown arcade cab with satellite speaker platforms but I put the Cable Guys there instead. A custom clamp with a rectangle platform that swings out (meant for laptops) that holds 1 of my HORI RAP4 KAI Fight Stick. My desktop is a Cosmos 1000 on two painted wooden wine crates with SNK and Doom Guy (1993) stickers. I have 1 32 inch monitor dead center of the desktop area with a extended crane clamp. The desk is 275 lbs. Which is great for when I play arcade games with my Hori. Speakers are wall mounted with a sub woofer under the desk in the center.

I have a gaming chair but I do most of my playing standing. I have rubber gel mats similar to what chefs have.

Living Room HTPC - Custom 2.5 Ft by 2.5 Ft entertainment center cube (made in shop class many moons ago) holding a nested desktop in the center connected to a 50 inch non-smart TV. Under the TV is a holder for Logitech K400r. There are 2 Cable Guys (Black Widow and Hulk) holding Logitech F710s to the right and left of the TV that are resting on cylinder candle holders that I sanded down (got rid of the nib to stick candles on) to just hold them. Same speaker setup except the subwoofer is to the left a bit next to the center piece.

We have a long sofa and a love seat along with 2 Lazyboy recliners from the 90's. They are in great condition and I TLC them every couple of years.

Bed Room HTPC - Simple store bought entertainment center with 2 small drawers and a spot meant to hold a vcr or small console. It just holds a few POP toys. 40 inch non-smart TV with a NUC desktop mounted in the back. Same keyboard and same gamepads as the living room. The Cable Guys here are COD Specialist 1 and Specialist 2. Wall mounted speakers with sub woofer.

We have these triangle pillows with neck support for long sessions but we mostly play short games or watch something online when it's on.

I also prefer the tower to sit on this desktop, rather than under it, since I cringe at the ambient colloidal dust that constitutes so much of the air. I keep the laptop lid closed and use a wireless keyboard and trackball in the bedroom, too, to minimize the sedimentary ventifaction.

I'm still waiting on my cpu ordered in November (thanks scalpers and crypto-wankers!).

Waiting on getting the cpu for the desktop and then having a friend who does welding / metalwork make me something custom.

My laptop is on the dining table (the only table remotely high enough to accomodate me).

your setup is quite nice, I should get a picture and show a picture of my desktop setup.

A 9010 tower sits next to me. My table is from Aldi and probably needs replaced for fixed. My monitor sits atop an old CRT monitor stand, before it sits my Model M, and my mouse is a Kensington Expert Trackball. I use a pair of tower speakers and a subwoofer for sound, but I may put those away. I also have a pair of headphones, but they're mostly for noise isolation.

Cluster-fuck. It not only describes my setup, it's also the word of the day! The tower used to be on the bottom. I don't think its supposed to be where it is now, but I moved it to give my rig better ventilation. It also used to be flipped around. I made the switch so I am better able to access the ports at the back.

Don't leave your PCs sitting on the floor guys, is just asking for a disaster to happen (and neither your multi socket plugs).

I use noise-reducing cable-connected earphones on the laptop.

I can only look avariciously at the light, wireless exemplars, like Bose, when my ears are raw from a couple of hours' use. Some games are a little repetitive, though, so I take those moments to rest my battered ears, like the town area of Torchlight, or.the arial dogfights of (XCOM) Enemy Unkown, when I have to scumsave to keep my flotilla afloat.

Here's mine. ;-)
The desk is temporary... my old one didn't survive the recent move.
