Have you tried hitting up Microsoft for a crap load of labeled merchandise? Seems like they would have at least provided team coffee cups ;).. Nice workspace though, I'm glad you got a space with a window.
Ah yes, the red stapler. At Microsoft, it's been a right for folks to have their own office. But Argo/Zune was so impromptu we had to use a small temporary space with no walls. So when the original 20 or so people moved into our cubicles, we got welcoming kits:
- a red stapler - a TPS report cover sheet form - a copy of Office Space

Nice touch.
re: MSFT labeled stuff.
Don't worry, I've got boxes of shirts, gadgets, etc... with msft logos. Now the Zune logo stuff is coming in...
Oh that is cool. I would love Zune paraphernalia. Especially if it had one of those Zune-branded firebirds from the Zune commercial.
By the way, this is James... I recently decided to make an account.
