The ventilation problem I can understand, but even with coops, electricians
have to install power busses at our offices.  The fact is that the 15 amp
service usually provided in the cubes is insufficient for powering
workstations, graphics terminals, etc., so after the cubes are installed (or
reinstalled) in an area, the electricians come by to hang 1x3 conduit and
wire up services to provide specialized connections and power.
