1. A table assembly comprising:
a tabletop member having a tabletop worksurface and a downwardly directed lower surface;
a leg structure coupled to the lower surface of the tabletop member for supporting the tabletop member, the leg structure including:
first and second substantially vertical and spaced apart leg members, each leg member having an upper end and a lower end, an outer surface and an inner surface;
an elongated horizontal upper member extending between the upper ends of the first and second leg members, the upper member having a flat outer surface, a flat inner surface, a flat top surface and a flat bottom surface, the top surface of the upper member forming a top surface of the leg structure, the outer surfaces of the first and second leg members and the outer surface of the upper member lying in a common outer surface plane and the inner surfaces of first and second leg members and the inner surface of the upper member lying in a common inner surface plane that is parallel to the outer surface plane;
an elongated horizontal lower member extending between the leg members intermediate the top and bottom ends to form a gap with the upper member, the lower member having first and second ends joined to the first and second leg members, respectively, the lower member having a flat outer surface, a flat inner surface, a flat top surface and a flat bottom surface, the lower member supported at a height below the height of the lower surface of the tabletop member so that the top surface of the lower member is vertically spaced below the lower surface of the tabletop; and
a removable accessory bracket including a substantially flat vertical member that extends along a first plane and a lip member coupled to an upper end of the vertical member, the lip member extending along a second plane that is substantially parallel to the first plane and that is spaced from the first plane; and
wherein the lip member engages the lower member to support the accessory bracket adjacent the outer surface of the lower member.
