That's just wrong - cleaning that up would be a huge pain as well....I've never had a glass desk myself, just one more reason to never get one.
Its a good thing it was only a cube and small monitor - I imagine if it had been a G5 and a larger display, something more than the desk would have been damaged... D

Toughened glass has one very large Achilles heel.
