TIME Magazine published a picture of his desk:

And Engadget (http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/22/al-gore-ex-vp-environmentalist-gadget-freak/) starts naming everything on it.

Even if he is an Apple fanboy... :D

I find really odd the little frog on the wall.

What do you guys call that little animal?
Here in Puerto Rico, we call it " coquí "

I'm no Apple fanboy, but respect for the triple monitors...

EDIT: What a mess!
I'd be ashamed if my desk was like that.

HHmmm, I agree with both. My desk at home is pretty tidy, but my desk at work is a mess. I take pride in my office at home and actually have time to clean it up after a project. My desk at work lacks attention because when I am done I am GONE! Too busy at work to worry about cleaning...

Didn't Tim Berners-Lee invent the internet?
Or at least wasn't he a part of its creation?

I do not think that Al Gore did...I mean, come on, he owns Apple products, lol! I wonder who started that whole rumor anyway?

Until he starts a worklog here on modding a G5, he ain't one of us.

But I do gotta give him props on those huge monitors. Damn!

Actually, Gore never said he invented the internet. He said he was on the Senate subcommittee that funded moving the internet from a military application to a civil network, which is true.
Bull**** spin caught on and it stuck in the public's mind. Many people know little to nothing about Gore as a politician, except that he 'said' that he invented the internet, which is nonsense.

I'm not even a Gore fan. I think he takes things too far without having all the info in.

Those are some big damn monitors.

I have to kill ManBearPig and I'm being serial! Nobody believes and I'm being serial!

Lol, those quotes are not gonna stop coming... for a while. But yeah, the whole global warming "movie" he made was just annoying, but we'll not start a bigass debate on global warming here, it's such a stupid thing to "argue" about, lol...
