0706 - Summary/Objective
0707 -
070701 - Followed up work at ref SDS 1 line 33.
070702 -
070703 - Millie wants to go ahead and get one of the tables we saw yesterday on
070704 - 950702 at Bus Van. ref SDS 1 0001  She thinks now that since payment
070705 - on the bed can be deferred 6 months, she will go ahead and get a
070706 - computer work station. ref SDS 1 1K6G
070707 - ..
070708 - We went back to Bus Van and inspected the tables more carefully
070709 - on the 2nd floor.
070710 -
070711 - There are a number of simple tables without drawers, which is the
070712 - configuration she is thinking of using, since she plans to get a
070713 - separate filing cabinet for document storage.  We looked at all of
070714 - their office type tables, as well as actual conventional desks.  They
070715 - have several standard table designs, in solid black, blond with black
070716 - support, mahogany and ash.
070717 -
070718 - Millie likes the look of a table with a mahogany finish.  There was
070719 - one unit of three parts that included a corner piece, but the total
070720 - cost is $300 - $400 and the quality of the items do not justify such
070721 - expense. Besides she is unsure if a corner piece will really work out
070722 - the way she wants to get set up.
070723 -
070724 -      [On 950716 purchased table with blond finish. ref SDS 2 TS6H
070725 -
070726 -  ..
070727 - Workstation Configuration - Desktop Space
070728 -
070729 - One of the considerations is to provide maximum clear working space on
070730 - the desk table.  We need enough depth so the monitor is not too close
070731 - to the person using the computer.
070732 -
070733 -     [On 950728 revised this planning a bit to avoid an awkward
070734 -     appearance. ref SDS 3 9V8F
070735 -
070736 - We considered getting a supplemental, narrow table of the same length
070737 - as the main table, so the computer monitor does not take up too much
070738 - space on the table.  We could not find anything that seemed suitable.
070739 - Decided we might try using the small narrow black table we got at Bus
070740 - Van in 1991, when we made the switch from 1602 to 416.  We got that
070741 - table for Millie's workstation in 1602, and recently moved it to the
070742 - living room.  The problem is that it is quite a bit shorter than the
070743 - table we are getting, and so may create an awkward appearance.
070744 -
070745 - She decided not to make a purchase today in order to avoid $100
070746 - delivery charge to Concord.
070747 -
070748 - She will call Pam to see if there is a place locally in Concord where
070749 - this unit can be purchased that does not require a large delivery
070750 - charge.
070751 -
070752 -      [On 950716 purchased table and Bill Wagoner picked it up.

070757 - Chair
070758 -
070759 - We looked at several chairs.  I explained the advantage of having a
070760 - comfortable chair for working at a computer workstation. Millie does
070761 - not want to invest in another chair before trying the one we have in
070762 - the closet at #416.  I suggested she consider a chair like what I
070763 - have.
070764 -
070765 -      [On 950716 considered chair again. ref SDS 2 GX8I
