'OneLessDesk,' for the ultimate Mac-head

Apple doesn't need any accessories to validate its station as a cultural mainstay. But if it did, what better indication could there be than a desk designed specifically for the Macintosh?

Heckler Design says its "OneLessDesk" has multiple uses but still saves space as the lower "deck" can be stowed under the top when not in use, according to BornRich. Can it be used for non-Apple computers as well? Of course, but that wouldn't take advantage of the ready-made branding that comes with any product claiming to be made for the Mac. And when you're charging $900 for a simple piece of furniture made of stainless steel, it helps to have as much justification as possible.

Thanks for the post. As for the cost, price up 25 square feet of 12 ga. stainless steel and lots CNC water cutting and you'll get a sense of where the money all goes. Just be glad we can offer it direct. I hesitate to think what the retail price would be. But we will try to reduce the cost as soon as possible - we're not trying to be snooty over here. :)
But honestly, thanks for the solid article.
