      It depends. If I'm at home, or at work on a weekend when nobody else is around, I'll listen to music. Generally 70's rock or 80's fluff. A browser with CodeProject open is also a must. Alcoholic bevereges are not permitted at work here. :) No generalization is 100% true. Not even this one.

              I'm with Mike. I work in complete quiet. Also, I can't think in a noisy or cluttered/untidy environment. Because I don't take a break for meals, I eat/drink at my desk. I'm looking forward to the long weekend - I plan to hack for 3 days straight! Sheer bliss! /ravi "There is always one more bug..." http://www.ravib.com ravib@ravib.com

                        I am dying without my tunes. I've been onsite on this contract for a year now. I tried installing the sound card drivers, but they crash the machine (dual-PIII NT) every time I try to play music AND do something else... I had a happy 2 hours of music or so... can't wait to get on to the next project. :) J I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.

My wife is leaving Saturday to visit her family for a week, and she's taking our baby with her. Of course I will miss them greatly, but I sure as hell am looking forward to the first no-distractions week-long hack-fest in a very long time. :cool: J I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.
