LOL. WD40 and locktite are your friends if you have a chair like that. :-)

I'd settle for something that doesn't squeak... and something where I don't have to tighten the bolts on it every couple of weeks... Unfortunately, our supplier of office equipment is Wal-Mart or Office Depot...

Yeah the Aeron is famous and I could have gotten one for only $50 more. I choice the Mirra though since it appears to have been designed closer to how I like to sit, for instance I often sit on my legs and I read somewhere that such a position would…

I think technically it's Herman Miller, but yeah, I would pretty much recommend an Aeron if you can find one. I don't know what your price range is, but on Ebay they're going for a few hundred without bids. I figured that someone…

Wow youre right, all this time google has just been giving me the Herman miller results. Useing the correct term now brings up a few results. Looks though like the down turn has not done much damage to Calgary, there is only one herman miller desk…

I missed the joke at first. My first thought was, nice servers. Then I read the subtext and was confused thinking that the open dell there might have been what you got and the dells on the rack were what you wanted. Then I got the joke.

Dreamspark from microsoft.

I love linux and just about everything open source and would love to use that primarily but can't until there is A, full Direct X for Linux or B, OpenGL takes over.

Dreamspark is a Microsoft program aimed at indoctrinating Microsoft software into young minds, I mean not officially of course.
