i like the jerker desks from ikea. i don't know if you would consider them small or not. however, i live in a very tiny studio apartment, and i have two of them in here, plus a third desk, so.... ;-)

unlike a lot of ikea stuff, this desk is really sturdy. it's primarily steel tubing. it does look very techno, so that might not appeal to you. it's very adjustable and you can get various add-ons.

i don't think you'd want to put that monitor on the upper shelf of the desk, unless you brace it a bit better. i have some heavy stuff on mine, and i just cut a little stick to brace the shelf against the main desk. it's behind my monitors so i don't really see it.
