So Friday I walked into the CEO's office and, on his desk, laid an envelope that looked like it was stacked with drug cash. "That's a thousand dollars," I said, "and it's the company's, if I get the PS3 and the flat panel TV gathering dust in the break room."

The PS3 I've gone over before, 20GB, the SKU discontinued last year. The TV is a 47-incher, something we bought for an open house a year ago and have used only once. It's out of warranty. I've asked my boss about this before and it never went anywhere, so I figured I'd go to the head man. His response was, more or less, he had to ask my boss (and the other co-founder). Gah. I will not be deterred in my quest for high quality merch (second usage of that slang term today, I know. Oh, and if you don't get the headline.)
