If you are lookign for affordable, Office Max (and others like Staples I think) have this glass and metal L desk for $99 all the time (with a free file cabinent).

My friend has one, and for $99 its NICE!

i prefer the spacious computer desks, tables that give you the freedom to move your mouse without knocking your drink off the edge of the table.

for example....

but then again i do spend alot of time dealing with computers at my desk, so i guess comfort is a necessary.

I have the non-L version of this desk, and with a LCD screen you have tons of room. I don't have a printer (we use a network one) or a scanner though, i think that would clutter up the space alot. I like the desk though, just get a good mousepad if you have an optical mouse, because it won't work on glass.

I do video editing so I need a LOT of space...

Anyways, I wound up getting their EFFEKTIV series "L" shaped desk with an extra add-on. Looks like half of the below pic...

    • OneDrive for Mac now lets you sync files to removable drives by Taras Buria If you use OneDrive on Mac and often work with external drives (a common sight among Mac users where internal storage is not upgradeable), Microsoft has some good news for you: the OneDrive client for macOS now supports removable drives, allowing you to sync files to external disks, both non-removable and removable. Microsoft introduced external drive support in OneDrive for Mac at the beginning of 2025. However, the initial rollout was limited to drives that macOS detects as non-removable. The company received plenty of feedback from users regarding this change, and it is now addressing the inability to sync files to removable drives. External drive support in OneDrive works the same way as syncing files to internal storage. If you unplug your drive, say, a portable SSD, OneDrive will stop syncing and notify you with an error message (there is a short delay for drives that sporadically disconnect). To resume sync, reconnect your drive and restart OneDrive. If you want to sync OneDrive to an external drive, your drive should be formatted for APFS (Apple File System) and protected by FileVault (read-only, network, and quarantined drives are not supported). Also, you need macOS version 15.0 or newer and OneDrive version 25.097 or newer. For now, external drive support is only available for insiders, but a wider rollout is coming soon. Finally, Microsoft adds that external drive support does not allow moving drives between devices. Therefore, you must set up OneDrive sync again every time you connect your drive to a new Mac. You can read more about external drive support in OneDrive for Mac in a post on the official Tech Community website. In other OneDrive news, check out our recently published guide, which details how to change OneDrive folder colors for extra personalization.
