Making your own is a good cheap alternative. I use tech stations exclusively now. They just make it so much easier to switch things out. I don't have the time to build one so I buy Sunbeam Ultra Tech stations at $70 a pop.

I need to get a bench. Although i'm slightly worried I might find a dead dog or two. Five in the house along with a foster dog. One of them chewed my lappy cable in half while it was charging, somehow it didnt phase the little shyt.

LOL. The esthetics are worth the extra $20. They look similar to the $200 Microcool stations, and are made out of very strong acrylic.
