What do you use for an ergonomic workstation?

story imageFirst it was ergonomic keyboards and mice, then ergonomic keyboard trays and lumbar-support chairs. Standing desks came next, and as XKCD points out, we're not done yet. No surprise then, that the SXSW event led to display of some new ideas, such as Martin Keen's new Leaning chair, basically a repurposed tractor seat posted at an angle.

How do you stay comfortable for the 23.5 hours that you are parked in front of a computer? And with all this ergonomic stuff, when will the madness end?

I'm an ergonomic nut. Somewhere around 10 years ago I bought a Herman Miller Aeron chair [1] and a Grahl Duo-Back chair [2] to have a "chair-off" to see which I liked better. The Aeron is a good chair for writing at a desk or thinking. It is terrible for working on a computer. The Grahl is as good as an Aeron for writing at a desk or thinking and is much better for using a computer. The chair I would buy now (models have changed since I bought) is a
Rohde & Grahl duo back 11 [3].
