The sloped sides seem to indicate that it is "designed" to be placed in
an open area to show off the feature.  The desk wouldn't look good or
work right sandwiched between other pieces of traditional furniture.  I
could see my "stuff" sliding off the darn thing and getting wedged in
the canyon.  :)

The floaty glass feature is a dust nightmare above and below.

I wonder if the laptop computer in one of the pics is a nod to the linux
we know.
