I would test it before you do it at the office, wouldn't wanna dissapoint the Smell and IBM users at work.
Of course.
It took me six years of campaigning to get this, and I want to make it as attractive as possible in the hope that others might want one and actually have a chance of getting one. In my work environment, people get their laptops and a crappy laptop bag, a dock, a cheap keyboard, and a CRT from ancient times (can't throw them away until no picture remains, company is too cheap to buy LCDs). No one - including me - has spent a dime of their own money on work equipment.
However, since getting the MBP a mere few days ago, I've bought a sleeve, a sling backpack (not due to arrive until Monday because of moves-at-the-speed-of-continental-drift DHL, so using an older messenger-type bag in the interim), a tiny BT mouse, a keyboard/screen protector (nice black Radtech 'X' cloth), cleaning spray and cloth, a stand to elevate it for typing, some cool software... basically, even though the MBP costs the same as the replacement laptops at work (just upgraded someone to a new Dell M70 that cost the same), it's going to be the only one with the bling. Sure, yes, it cost me some money out-of-pocket. But I hope it's an investment in a future with more Macs at work, and, at the very least, the MBP deserves to be treated better than the Dell/IBM drones around it.
