Guh. I hate that stuff. I never feel like a positive connection has been made.

The cheap knockdown hardware isn't that great. If it has plastic in it, it's no good. The quality all-metal hardware I linked to from Rockler's site do a good job for desk-type stuff. Is it as good as a permanant, glued joint? Nope. If installed right it is plenty good for office furniture, though.
