ABSTRACT
In some corner of a bland, ambiguous open-plan office somewhere in the world today there is a high likelihood that the following scenario will play out. The office’s token computer technician will raise his head from his coffeestained keyboard and stare in the direction of the large cupboard-like object in the corner of the room. This is Mecca for our technician, the very spring from which geek-like status rises. Somewhere in the back of his subconscious a survival mechanism has kicked in and he has realised that it has been over an hour since he satisfied his craving for caffeine. He rises slowly and heads towards the office’s coffee machine for the third time that morning.
