The Ultimate Gaming Table 

Oh. My. God. From Houston, Texas, via RPG.net, the Ultimate Gaming Table.

With -- hosanna! -- Ultimate Gaming Table Building Instructions!

Comments:
Please, that's not much more than a big table with drawers in it.

Now this is the ultimate gamers table. :)
 
Just when I thought I had seen it all! I had no idea this was going on, but I certainly approve. Both of these tables are innovative and supercool, but for most roleplaying purposes, I've got to go with #1. For PARANOIA, the #2 table has the clear advantage: it has 'secret society meeting table' written all over it.
 
And here I am using a 5 foot diameter resin folding table. Only cost me $80, but it's not nearly as impressive as these two.

I originally bought it to play Twilight Imperium (that game takes up more table space than I had), and have since found it sufficient for RPGing up to 5 (maybe 6) players and a GM, if they don't mind using a clipboard for their character sheets. It fits one of those vinyl Chessex mats nicely, and leaves a bit of room around the outsides.

Best of all, I can fold it up and roll it behind the couch when I'm not using it, as I don't have a garage hidden in my apartment.
 
aah paranoia , that's my corner to be.
