Ask Slashdot: Ergonomic Office Environment?

Posted by Soulskill on from the i-recommend-airplane-seats dept.

relyte writes "In the spirit of the recent poll — where many people recommended ergonomic upgrades — what's the best way to get a comfortable, ergonomic, efficient work environment? I'm just starting my career in software development, and I'd like to get a great chair, keyboard, mouse, monitor, etc. What models would you recommend to save wear and tear on joints, eyes, and muscles? Are there other categories I should consider?"

    There's your problem. Not even horses stay on their feet that long.

    the setup that i had at ISS was a swivel chair that had a split keyboard, with a mouse track-pad on one half.

    I'm intrigued as to how you managed even to stay in it, what with the weightlessness and all... Duct tape?
