Jim; I'm not denying environment plays a part in one's productivity, just questioning whether or not the upcharge is worth it. Alienware costs a lot.

People do care how things look. Working in good-looking surroundings is proven to increase productivity. Even "private" things can significantly affect emotional state and attitude: think about somebody wearing crisp, clean new underwear vrs somebody that was forced to double-day. ;^) What we see and surround ourselves with can vast affect our sense of self-worth and attitude. This is, of course, highly variable depending on upbringing and personality. Even when you're alone on the road driving a nice car "feels" better than driving a comparable ecno-box. Getting a snazzy case makes some people feel good. Building a snazzy case makes me feel good... ;^) Jim Davis ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=5 Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
