Gaming while at work...

So.... the funny thing is I was invited to bring my xbox to work this week and "game" whenever across our network. (I work at Intel, this isn't really "shocking" but still). So anyways, I need a VGA/DVI adapter for one of my LCD's I have here at work.


GAF... which one do you guys stand behind / already have and what is the best value for my dollar?
 
I brought a gameboy to work when I was doing coatcheck at a banquet hall. Outside of beginning/ending rushes you pretty much just sit there for 3 hours barely being bothered so it was okay. I did the same thing for my current job at a lab and I felt bad for basically stealing money cause I could've been doing work. Haven't done that again.

Bring it for your lunch breaks, that's cool. And if your boss is okay with it then alright. But I was hiding it, playing in like a locked office, etc :lol

is supposed to be the best VGA adaptator for the xbox.
 
When a couple guildies in WoW are in Hillsbrad on their mains, but ain't in TS, I know they're scoring some HK's at work, (software company; they get their work done and debugged, then send it off to another section which leads to downtime like crazy).
 
I play my DS/PSP all the time at work when it's dead, or I watch some movies/anime. My sister did suggest bringing out the GC or PS2, but I thought that might be too much of a distraction. There's also a PC at work, which I usually surf or chat on during the dead time as well. I even attempt PSOBB on it, but that was a short period due to it running horribly.

This is what I use and I'm very pleased with it. Unfortunately, if you need it a.s.a.p., you may be out of luck. You have to order it from Asia and it takes a while to arrive.
 
I'm a host at a horribly unsuccessful restaurant, so I probably spend the majority of my time playing my DS at work. The best part about it is that my manager joins in Advance Wars 2 games with me all the time, sigh, too bad the place is going to go under in a matter of weeks, I dread actually spending my time at work working.....
 
Last summer I brought my GP32 to work, played Punch-Out all summer. :)
This summer, it's PSP and DS time.

And playing games as a job kinda sucks, because you can't always choose the game you want to play. :P
