    Sophocles,
    I'll see if I can find you one for you. Some of the older Dental lounge chairs had them as an option. I may even have one at the shop. If I have one it's yours! Don't think I can get it to you by Christmas though.

    Hmm! I would love to have a Dentist's chair. How much for the whole chair and does it have restraining straps?

    Seriously, a dental chair with a massage? I don't mean to go off topic, but that's awesome!

    Imagine what a computer chair it would make! The adjustments and reclining features alone would be awesome.

    I know a Dentist in LA that has 4 24" monitors mounted on the ceiling, 1 for each chair, so the kids can play video games while they are in the chair waiting.

    That's fairly common up in Edmonton now. Several dental clinics I know have them above each of the chairs. I don't think they have gaming systems though, just cable. If I was a dentist I don't think I'd want a patient of mine getting into a shooter as I'm using sharp objects around their mouth though.

    Shambles,
    I guess I should have qualified that! LOL!! When they seat them and before the Dr. comes in they play games. Then they switch to a video for them to watch. I could just see someone plying GTA or something like that while a Dentist was drilling your teeth! ROFLMAO!!

    I used to live in Edmonton until 1986 and then the wife and I left for PEI en route to Florida. How are things in the Big "E?"


    On another not and on topic. Donald picked up a QX6700 for $200. Leave it to Donald to find a cheap extreme quad. I suspect that it will have some overclock limitations even with the unlocked multiplier but we shall see.

    For the price of a Q6600 retail, that's not bad at all. I'm interested to see how far the old Kentsfield architecture goes...

    So the Quad core Q6600s are considered old now?
    What are the P4 3.6GHz's considered?
