Whenever we pass by the iStudio shop I press my nose against the window and ogle my latest object of desire, a Mac Pro. More power than I need for more money than I can justify, I can only dream.
Yesterday my viewing was blocked by a poster in the window.

And inside the shop was the chair itself.

She who must be obeyed was studying it intently. Had she noticed the many awards it had won? The fact that is was on permanent display at the New York Museum of Modern Arts? The suspension system, the adjustable armrests, the waterfall front edge that reduces pressure on the thighs? No, what seemed to have captured her imagination was the chair’s mesh covering. “You could fart right through that” she observed.
And she was right. Amazingly, and short-sightedly, the publicity material had failed to mention this important benefit. The Aeron Chair - you can fart right through it.
