I am presently typing this from my exertainement bike :)
It's a recumbent stationary bicycle to which I installed a little platform where my laptop stand. I can watch movies, play games, browse Internet social news sites while not feeling guilty for not working.
When I feel zealous I even read technical material, code and do anything that is considered work, however it's more difficult to keep a good cadence when doing too serious stuff.

It shouldn't be too hard for someone who knows what he's doing. Next step is authorizing all the "time-wasters" (hulu, HN...) only on that computer. It would surely work for me.
