First Claim
1. ) A desk or computer work station consisting of a telescoping support column with a major central outer section and minor upper and lower inner sections which have lower and upper ends terminating at floor and attached to the ceiling of the structure or dwelling. The central outer section provides means for height adjustment by mechanical extension or retraction of the lower inner section and free sliding movement of the upper inner section. The central outer section also provides means of attachment for substantially horizontal work surfaces. The assembly of central outer column section and work surfaces is able to be rotated about the upper and lower inner column sections which remain stationary.

Abstract
A computer desk that uses a cantilevered work surface structure rotatably mounted to a vertical support column. The support column can be mounted so that the lower end rests upon the floor and the upper end is affixed either directly to the ceiling or by brackets to an elevated position on the wall of the structure or dwelling. The desk can be installed next to a bed and positioned to allow use while sitting up in bed or rotated to allow use while sitting in a chair. The desk can have multiple deck levels to accommodate a computer and accessories and a separate deck for control elements such as keyboard, mouse, and/or game controllers that can incorporate armrests. It can be assembled in right hand or left hand configuration from the same parts. It is designed to be as adjustable as is possible while also being inexpensive to produce.
