Chair: The chair was being thrown away. It has a small rip in the front of the seat, is missing casters, and I had to do some of the assembly myself. The casters are kind of a problem because right now the center post is actually the lowest part of the base, so it wobbles around some.

Laptop: The laptop came from the internet classifieds. I paid $35 for it, which is definitely more than it’s worth. I got a carrying case with it, though, which is in much better condition than the computer, and I’ve kind of wanted one anyway. So maybe it was an ok deal.

• pcmcia modem, no ethernet.
• swappable floppy and cdrom drives
• 2 gb hard drive
• pentium 166
• no battery, so it has to be plugged in at all times

The cd drive doesn’t appear to be bootable, so I’ll have to install something off a floppy. First I’ll have to find a floppy somewhere. At the moment there is nothing on the computer at all. It boots to a dos prompt but there is nothing else there.
