Soft things like sofas, beanbags, ...

I was going to note the power outlets and cat5 drops but haven't yet.

That sounds great.  I think we're ready to start moving furniture in
(with the caveat that we probably are going to end up ripping up this
carpet at some point, so no grand pianos).

It's a terrible idea to put any spinning fans in the downstairs closet;
I wouldn't put in anything that can't be screwed to the plywood.  We can
and should build a cabinet (with vents and a plexiglass door) to limit
the dust on the network gear.

I suggested we should just drop 8 runs upstairs and put the servers in
one of the upstairs closets.  Another idea jof had was to put the
servers under the workbench near the fishbowl door, but in the main
room, with a short rack or something.  (I'm bringing a short rack
probably tomorrow.)
