I'm faculty at one of the larger engineering universities in the US. In the EECS department, on the CS side.
I'm willing to bet I'd never have an office that nice if I worked in the corporate world. Locally handmade hardwood furniture, a lock on the door, a large J shaped desk which takes up all of one wall, 3 floor to ceiling bookshelves, etc.
It's awesome being in academia, and I would recommend it to anyone who can handle it. Lots of whining, though.
I'm locally known (on my hallway) as the machine gun typist, as I use a 122 key Model F at my workstation.
