If your goal is to inspire your team, LET THEM BE CREATIVE. Google has the right idea!
Your employees will learn to use the tools better, they will find their creative energy renewed, they will feel challenged and they will be better employees.

- Learn to code so others can maintain what you have written (brilliance is in simplicity and clarity, not obfuscation and pedantry).
- You. Must. Work. With. People. Learn to communicate Lucidly, Briefly, Respectfully and Disarmingly; if you do not understand these words, do look in a dictionary.
- Always eat well; healthy food is brain food (sometimes it takes a sharp brain just to find good food in the grocery store).
- For pity's sake, do not waste your time with pr0n! If you develop Carpal-Tunnel Syndrome, you're finished.
In general, when shopping for an LCD monitor, look for low power-consumption, small screen-pitch (less than or equal to 0.26), and at least a three-year warranty.
But before you buy a Samsung LCD monitor, get your hands on the repair manual (PDFs can be found if you are good at using Google). In the parts diagram, ensure that the LCD screen and the screen controller circuit-board are SHOWN separately and can therefore be PURCHASED separately.
I am stuck with a Samsung TFT 770 whose screen is perfect but the screen-controller board has failed. They are considered by Samsung to be ONE part, although the LCD screen is worth over $600 and the screen-controller is likely worth $15.
Moving forward, I think this issue runs counter to our ethos and partner-committments in the current ecosystem.
Please give the team a heads up and touch base with them over this so we can ramp everyone up on the issue and have an ideas-exchange in the short to medium time-frame.
If there's issues and anyone has any comments or concerns, have them bring their solutions-focussed recommendations.
Now -- for a limited time only-- you can use the Nationalistic Moron's Assertion About The Probability Of Other Nation's Linguistic Evolution to justify ~any~ war... while insulting other nations in your favourite, chasm-spanningly idiotic manner!

You can ~get~ to what you need in DEVStudio. But the dialogs are badly designed and often not resizable. The damned thing is always getting in the way.
To see how Borland exposes properties for objects, try "test-driving" Delphi or C++ Builder.
it's actually a damn good ide, don't think any developer can disagree
Well, we can't have you strutting around all day thinking that!
Have you ever used a Borland IDE? I've used both Borland and Monoposoft and prefer Borland by far. Especially for UI development. All the properties of an object are easily accessible and the IDE's dialogs are nicely designed instead of being modal and unsizable.

Not to detract from the merit of your sentiments, but, you know, "Aldous Huxley's 1984" really reminds me of George Orwell's 1984.
Given an article about a book on mathematics and sex written by any symmetrically-formed woman under the age of 40, what is the probability that:
a) the number "69" will appear among the first 10 replies?
b) a WWW image link for the book's author will appear among the first 10 replies?
c) an offer of marriage will be extended to the book's author in an e-mail from a Slashdot scribe who owns a Batman suit?
c)ii) that said scribe will brush the Fig Newton crumbs of off his Batman suit to add a sort of gallant flourish to the marriage proposal?
c)iii) that said scribe will yell up to his mother from the basement to bring more Fig Newtons?
d) that the book author will employ unusually refined anti-spam rules to filter her e-mail for the next six months?
e) that the book author is a Windows user?
