This $5,900 chair may be the tech world's new key to productivity

  I'm not sure why I find this posture so offensive. The idea of walking into an office full of guys in this rig wearing AR goggles and 3 screens strikes me as a thing that I'd run screaming from. Maybe I'm just so old that I wanna suffer while I stare at a rectangle.

  This $5,900 chair may be the tech world's new key to productivity. Or it may just be fluff that's tantamount to advertorial content. You be the judge.

  I built myself a setup like this a few years ago. Everything about it seemed glorious - but I soon started having trouble with the back of my head. I never noticed how heavy my head was before. I started to have dizziness problems because of blood flow issues and gave it up. I am really curious if anyone here has tried it for some long stretches for a couple of days - and if they had any issues with dizziness or not.

    Care to share what your setup looks like? Posture is something I think about a lot while computing. I've got a great sit/stand desk at my office now and I really only use stand if I'm having a funny numb leg or something. I've found doing yoga and weight training much more useful than exotic desks.

  Couldn't you make your own fairly easily from a dentist chair? They cost quite a bit less, and have multiple swing arms for holding lights and tools that could be adapted to hold a screen and keyboard.

  I use a setup like this and it's the only reason I can keep working. The price seems high, but it's nice that it can convert to a standing desk. It's hard to believe that it will become popular, though.
