Martha Stewart Buys $40,000 'Geek' Chair for Her Assistant (VIDEO)

Martha Stewart's assistant Elliot convinces her to buy one of the Emperor Workstations, a $40,000 chair mounted with three monitors, THX 5.1 surround sound, air filtering, light therapy and touchscreen controls, on Wednesday's 'The Martha Stewart Show' (weekdays, syndicated).

It doesn't take much persuasion: Elliott swears he'll work for Stewart on weekends, and Stewart doesn't want to be outdone by the Prince of Dubai, who bought 10, and a Google programmer, who also has one. "It's the ultimate in geekdom," Stewart declares. But what does the Prince of Dubai want with them? Stewart has an idea.
