Abstract

A versatile workstation system including two tables which are removably connected to each other, the tables for supporting two computers monitors, two keyboards and two CPU units. One of the tables is at a standard height and may be used as a desk or a conference table. The second table is two inches lower. The second table is mounted on casters to allow it to be rolled up to and away from the first table. The second table includes brackets for connecting to the first table when the tables are adjacent one another. The second table also includes a wire management structure and has a computer support bracket for computer CPUs. The second table may be used to support the monitors, the CPUs and the keyboards as well as other equipment when the second table is rolled out of the way. The combination of the two tables provides versatility for an office space and is efficaciously ergonomic.
