Check Out Al Gore’s Messy Desk
- Posted by glen on June 11th, 2007
Al Gore has an insane working space. I would lose my mind working in an area like he has. But I do give him some mad props for having not 1 or 2, but 3 widescreen monitors. What a champ.

Wow, what a mess! Other than the cool monitor set up, his working environment would drive me crazy!

Anyone know what the chair he’s sitting in is? I’m looking for an alternative to the Aeron.

I hear you on that Glen. How the heck can anyone find what there looking for in such a mess?
I guess as long as he knows his mess, he can get things done. I’d just go nuts!
Thanx for sharing!

My officespace is a lot smaller, I have six macs on my table and the “mess” is similar as on Gore’s tables. I still have no trouble finding anything in the volcanic stacking system.

Ian Cheung,
Try the RH Logic 400
http://www.rhchairs.co.uk/
I find it better than the Aeron. I got it cheaper than I could the Aeron, and it’s more adjustable (the back can be set more straight, seat and back can be moved independently, armrests can rotate and be moved back and forth as well as up and down, there’s an optional neckrest, etc.)

They look good and I would love to try them out but I’m based in Osaka, Japan and I haven’t seen them about. *shrug* The search goes on.

Looks like he has some recycling to do…lol, is that a rap video he has on in the background?

Ha!

Oh man… Looks a lot like my desk, I have to say. I hate the mess, but I am powerless to do anything about it…

I wonder how much energy those monitors use! Not good for the environment AL!!!
