This is where I do most of my gaming when I'm doing multiplayer, or can't play on my TV in the living room because it's being used by my roommate, or I'm trying to keep it down when he's sleeping. I'm kind of OCD with cable clutter/tangling so I like to keep them all nicely bound, and kept out of sight. The desk is just one of the corner ones from walmart, and I affixed an oak board to the side to support the monitor mount.
The monitor swivels 360 degrees so I can keep it out of the way, extend it towards the bed for Netflixing myself to sleep, towards the pillowchair for casual late-night gaming, or towards the office chair for hardcore monitor-in-the-face multiplayer. The white thing under the monitor is a battery-dispenser I made because the TB X41's run off of rechargeable AAA's and it gives no warning when they're about to die. I can usually change them out in about 5 seconds flat without having to take the headset off.
Absolutely love this monitor, except it did not come with VESA monitor mount holes in the back. I carefuly pried the bezel off the back enclosure and drilled holes through it. I fabricated a metal reinforcing plate, complete with mounting holes that I tapped, then glued it to the inside of the enclosure, ensuring that the the holes were lined up before reassembling the monitor. This can be done with just about any monitor, provided there is enough room in the enclosure for a 1/4" thick metal plate.
The home made, folding lap pad for my XIM. Made out of 2 large cutting boards, including the controller holster which is made out of the scraps from where I cut the handles off and two large garage tool hooks. I've been using this for almost 3 years now and it's held up to some pretty serious traveling. the XIM and The G13 are held in place with Velcro.
For ergonomics I fabricated a palm support out of a tennis ball, two 1/4" step bushings, and a 1/2" piece of aluminum rod. It is completely removable for cleaning.
This is my living room setup. Two 22" dell monitors and a 47" vizio 3D TV are all driven off my desktop. I rarely do any PC gaming anymore, but my roommate uses it for Diablo 3, and it (ATI 5770) runs that quite well at the highest settings and even handles Passive 3D. The computer also has a toslink expansion card so it can take advantage of my 1000W system.
Finally, my stained oak lap board for PC use. I datoed the end so I could add a piece of cutting board flush with the rest of it. Cutting board is a great surface for optic/laser mice. It is incredibly smooth, easy to clean, and I've had no tracking issues with the mouse optics. I also added nylon furniture feet to the bottom so it does not scratch up my nice oak table.
