That made me laugh. I'm IT and don't have an expense account to pay for a MBA, but my regular salary covered it well enough.IMO, the IT staff were just having a sour-grape laugh, because they'll never in their jobs have an expense account to pay for an MBA.
Got a few chuckles at first from my peers, but after they saw how well Spaces, Expose and Fusion bring things together, I'd be very surprised if I'm the only Air owner in my dept for much longer.
