Small tanks look good on shelfs, especially above desks, where they can distract from homework and such.

I am tooo scared to put it on my desk. If some were to happen I would hate that my 200.00 tank ruined my MacPro

I very highly doubt that.

Both of mine are in the bedroom - one on a rolling TV stand and the other on the floor. However, I'm planning on moving next month, and I've got big plans for my tanks after that, including upgrading!

I keep mine, actually several on a desk. I don't really use that desk for work so it's pretty much just one big tank stand.

I have Three Nano Vases, two in the lounge room and one in the bedroom,
I just got two betta's to go in the lounge room ones, and there are 2 baby bristlenose pleco's in each vase (rescued from community tank) and several cherry red/ malanda shrimp. All tanks are planted and the tall one uses a compact fluro for lighting, while I just upgraded the two with the new fighters to LED telescopic lights, which by the way are available very cheaply at Kmart, ($15 each) although I did need two with the J shaped vase to get an even distribution of light.

Two on my dresser, one on my desk (the perfect distraction).

Mine is on a counter at work. I think nanos should be at eye level some place you'll be able to enjoy it most w/o bending over. When I sit and read --there it is; great for daydreaming!
