just looking at them makes me skeptical...

This isn't the first year these have been on. as is illustrated by the significantly old laptops displayed for props. every time I see the picture, I think "ooooo fanc..... oh, these again..., i guess i can go to goodwill if I really needed a desk like that".

Now, why does the laptop need a separate keyboard?

Amazon reviews are generally very good for the Mission Desk. Mostly problems with assembly, but once done they say it's a very nice desk.

Because laptop keyboards stink for productivity. Too many missing keys, dual-function keys, half-size keys, keys that are just buttons (F1-F12), missing numeric keypad, bad key layout, bad ergonomics, etc.

I always prefer a separate keyboard and mouse when using a laptop.

That cart, though, has a "vintage" CRT monitor and bulky old minitower on it, that tells you it has to be stronger than your average particleboard furniture.

I think Woot should assemble each of these desks, get a camcorder rolling, and see how many Sony 24" CRT monitors (just shy of 100 pounds each) they can support before they collapse into a pile of sawdust.

I'd like to see more info on the home and office PC cart. Looks like something that could work in our kitchen...

I highly doubt the sofa desk is W 60" x D 30" x H 30"

I concur. I'm going to guess it is somewhere closer to 60"x15"x30", unless the picture is somehow distorted.

Woot, could you clarify?

There is a desk on Overstock that looks almost exactly like that corner desk for a lot less $$$.
