I recently moved from sharing a small office with my boss to my own cubicle with my own desk (was using basically a table before this).
Anyway, my cubicle is bare except for printer, speakers, DVD burner, and phone. At my last job, i had my own cubicle but never decorated it or brought anything in of my own.

what do you have? do you find that it distracts you or helps you relax at your job?
a lot of times i'm not really at my desk to look at anything anyway.

edit: let me clarify, i mean personal items like pictures, posters, little toys/statues, etc.

The bare essentials, the only personal items are my cell phone (set to vibrate) and my coffee cup.

The usual boring stuff - two computer, books, papers, legal pads, coffee cup, etc. I do have one of the demotivators and the "math wouldn't be hard" picture hanging up though.

I only get a table type desk deal. And it's all tools for wiring like soldering iron, bunch of pliers and snips, couple wire strippers, file, knife, clamp, crimpers, ruler, etc etc! About the only thing of mine is a pop I'm normally drinking!
