Irene at Marymount in Arlington here:  Instructional Media Center

We have: 	17" monitor, comfortable arm chair on wheels with plenty 
			of space 	to move around, carrel in which system is set in, 					
careful  lighting to avoid 	reflections on screen,  PC w/CD 						drive
, headset, external speakers.

I believe what patrons like the most are the large (would like it
larger) monitor and the comfortable arm chair.
