RajahPHow is the Touch-Surface working out?

I am getting more inclined to take the plunge but as of yet I have not.  It certainly intrigues me as an alternate control surface but the cost (for large touch screens) plus the lack of tactile feedback gives me pause.  I'll make my final decision once I get my new PC mid-tower from Jim Roseberry.  The truth is that technology is so good now compared to 40 years ago that I'm spoiled in my choices to the point where it's more of a distraction to the music itself at times.

Thank you all for the interesting responses, I bid you goodnight as I have to teach in the morn.

Ah yes, lots of good choices to be had on this Gear Slutz thread.  Oh that's right this forum seems to prohibit the links I post for some unknown reason.  Well, it's from Gear Slutz with the key-word query "What's the best ikea desk for studio?"  Good night kids, another day awaits.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

You are unable to include links in your posts until you've got the magic number of posts, which is 25 I believe, so you should be good to go now.

My guess is that anything you buy (especially from IKEA or Staples) is going to be made of particle board (or possibly MDF). Musician's Friend sells some studio furniture, but I can't speak to the quality although they do have reviews on the website.

Look for a IKEA Jerker desk. The older ones (as at the link below) often enough pop up on Craigslist.
