Hey I'll go one step farther.... I setup my mame stuff on company computer, on company time.  I do my artwork at work and print it on the Textronic color printer.  And it's so cool cause now EVERYONE at work is into MAME !

I love this hobby!

 ;D

Websense - the proxy we have at work - filters BYOAC out under the category of "games", so no.  :(

Sheesh someone at your work is cranky. Lucky for me my boss knows when I am doing audio work. The only thing I have to look at is a movie poster and a white wall. So he installed a spare comp for me to surf the net.

Work is a little slow right now....

I actually take a jump drive with me to work and download programs here and there...mostly eBooks or things like that.

My DSL at home is nice, but the T1 at work simply rocks!

I did -  a few months back when it was slow.  But now I'm pretty damn busy.  But I suppose that's a good thing :)

Typically every hour on the hour.

It's a tension breaker.

It keeps me from strangling the idiots.

I'm in IT. I'm just making sure the network is still working... yeah...

Yep, seems fine now.  I'll have to test it in a few more minutes though.  One never knows..

Well, I try to stay fairly mellow about outside surfing, but everytime I stop by our admins desk, he is surfing as well, so I figure I can indulge in my Mame activities a bit.

I do feel sorry for our admin though.  It has to be tough working in a job where everyone else has been an admin as well, the poor guy, there isn't anything he can tell the rest of us that we don't already know.....  :)
