I'm an architect working on an office remodel for a client who needs some markerboards for a meeting room and stumbled across this... The manufacturer, showing the product in use on their website.  Awesome.   [thumbsup]  The product itself could benefit from some Ducati styling, however.   :P

How about "Schedule Ducati for new front tire"

Well my bike has the interesting "die while you're riding it" thing going on.  Not sure what to write about that on the little board.   [cheeky]  (It's got a loose connection or relay somewhere and when I hit a bump or am in a turn, the bike cuts out for a second.  It's fun.   [laugh])

Oooo. disappointment.

Steelcase owns IDEO. You'd think they could do better than that.

Soon it will be a list

1) Schedule Ducati for Tune up
2) Put kidney up for sale
3) Buy BST Rims.

<WARNING> < Design-geek talk ahead >

The design of the board is ass. b0ring, with a hint of 1980. For a company that owns the top design firm in the world, they could do better.
Ducati written on it is the only interesting thing.

IDEO, for example, came up with a white board that then sends all info written and draw on it to your computer and saves it.
How cool is that? But for those who don't want to spent a kidney on a white board, they could at least do one that's easier on the eyes.
I love IDEO.

I think I speak for all of us when I mention I'm amazed you're not single.

Yeah....but only for "ideal partners" according to the article, which just translates to "I never got laid until I met a girl who wanted to settle down".

My g-friend is a architect-designer geek one too.
There were frequent, shorter, relationships before this one.  [laugh]
