Although a little bit cube farmish in appearance if you ask me, the Revolution desk is an interesting way of having a computer and a full desktop in a small space. What I do like about this desk though is the way that the monitor is exposed and then subsequently hidden.
Revolution Desk: Now you See it, Now you Don't
By simply pulling out the keyboard tray, the monitor flips over into a viewable position. Push the keyboard tray back in and the monitor closes up. The modern version of the roll top desk? The classroom desk of the future? The ergonomics are a bit questionable here so I would personally probably do a wall mounted monitor to clear off my desk. If you like the mechanical action of the desk and don't mind looking down all day though, the Revolution Desk can be yours for between $500-$700.

The lab classrooms that I teach in have flat screen computer monitors that are on a hydraulic arm at each student station. The screen hides in the desk beneath a ~5" wide hinged part of the desktop. Looking at the tables you'd never know there was a computer in there. when you lift up that hinged part the arm brings up the screen which is then adjustable (height and tilt). The tower is mounted similarly to the ones in the above pictures. It's a REALLY slick set-up.
