Due to a disabled partner i've had to work from the living room Lay-z-boy a fair amount. They don't make the model we have any more (pity), the closest now looks to be The Carlyle Low Recliner/. Get a board that spans the arms and is deep enough, makes a fine desk to hold a laptop, though you will need to hold up your arms a bit maybe. Workout while you code.

FYI if you run into back issues or just want to relax even more get a LapDawg X4 and set it up to hold your laptop above your chest at an angle while lying on the floor, with a pillow behind your head. Best to have an Ottoman to prop up the feet. Worked great when I was recovering from a bulging lumbar disc and been great to stop that from coming back.

I have a chair that my wife refers to as the Wall-E chair. I use it with a reading table to hold my laptop, a bluetooth keyboard, and a trackball that sits on the arm of the chair. Works a treat. The chair is something like this: http://www.la-z-boy.com/Produc...

It's ugly, the construction is pathetically bad, I've had to screw it back together with drywall screws, but it is quite comfortable, and doesn't look _completely_ awful. I'm sure you could come up with something nicer, though.

The best, in my opinion, is a Lay-Z-Boy. I mean, can you really beat the Chill 2 Motor Massage/Heat Rocker with a built in cooler?. I don't think so. Get yourself some kind of swivel monitor/keyboard setup for easy access in any position and your day is golden.

Also, exercise, as others have mentioned. Otherwise your body will fall apart even WITH a 2 motor massage/heat rocker with built in cooler.

When one ponders about the foundation of using DNA for anything, very, very few times will immigration be a believable application. But what can DNA normally be used for? For me, the first thing is Law Enforcement. Now if I look at DNA and immigration, and combine this with a growing acceptance of Interpol Criminal Data Basing, the logic becomes straightforward. Law Enforcement feels compelled to now get DNA, along with a Photo, and a Name. I think I will consider investing in the La-z-Boy Corporation. Because when Law Enforcement thinks they can solve crime by sitting in a comfortable chair, more, usually worse, crime occurs.

If only the chair had internal cable management, the power and network cable keep getting pinched by the recliner mechanism.

I would think that beer, remote controls and la-z-boy could claim prior art pretty easily.
