To be clear that pic is of my current setup, I've got a new sony SXRD rig coming on Thursday and I've been told putting any weight on the top of it is not a good idea as it can gradually cause the chasis to bow and cause geometry issues.

I am going to have to buy a TV stand anyway so finding one that has room for the vp150 is no problem, but I'm just concerned that it's just going to fire in to the coffee table and screw everything up.
