I've been happily hacking on my Ikea Bekant for three years. I replaced the top, replaced the buttons with a double throw rocker switch (1), built a Mac Mini/laptop shelf on the back half, a KVM switch on a little shelf in the front.
Cable management isn't horrible but there's a lot of room for improvement. I'd like to replace all the AC adapters with one big one that can supply everything.
I've built some outlandish and unsatisfying desks in the past, the gradual approach has been better.
1. This is unsafe for children, as they might figure out a way to flip the switch and crush themselves. Please take this consideration into account.
