iGo iMac Desk

iGo

Rain Design's iGo iMac desk is a fantastic accessory for your iMac G5. Now you can buy a desk which enhances the iMac's minimal styling and poise. It has an adjustable keyboard stand, suitable for left and right handers. The sitting model can be pushed around on it's wheels, so if you fit an airport card, you can work wherever suits you. It's also a lot more compact than most computer desks, so it'll take up a smaller footprint than a regular boring desk.

Gorgeous iGo

It comes complete with a iMac turntable so you can spin your display to exactly the right angle, great for working with others. Also your wrists will rejoice at the matching white gel filled wrist pad. Although it does show the dirt, it can be washed in warm soapy water. It also has a 'halo' lamp fitted beneath the computer which makes it glow in the dark - great for impressing your mates. It has a 'digital hub panel' which could also be described as a lightweight shelf and also has cup/speaker holders, depending on what is more important to you - caffeine or your audio.

iGo a Go-Go

The only thing that really lets down the iGo is the lack of space for books, paper, scanners etc. If like me you like to surround yourself with manuals and books, it may not be the desk for you. However if you clear your clutter and prefer a zen-like clear working space, then the iGo is a perfect mobile platform for you and your iMac. It will produce envious looks from friends and family and has a certain wow factor that I have yet seen to be matched. It is available in 2 versions - sitting and standing. The standing model has no castors but is perfect for a showroom or a designer reception.
