Right now it's a quantum leap in how the human body interacts with the computer, but soon The Plasma 2System will be as common as the fax machine, employees will come to expect it. If you've been using a traditional static desk and chair -- based on technology predating electricity -- to interact with the latest computer hardware, you are missing a valuable competitive edge.
I think I'll pass on the competitive edge, thank you.
Hockenberry strikes me as the sort of man whose team would follow him anywhere, but only out of curiosity. I happen to like traditional chairs and desks and the fact that we still use them despite the damning fact that they predate electricity is probably due to the very good reason that they are comfortable and you don't look like a complete burke using them. As for employees expecting the Plasma 2System (wretched name), I think that Hockenberry is confusing "expect" with "dread."
