Been seriously looking into re-doin my place for my gaming/computer researching hobbies.
Work on a farm so everything from eyes/organs/bones are pretty much always in pain.

Need advice on setup such as chair, desk, keyboard, mouse, etc. to help cut down on my aleve/tylonal addictions Smile
Googling not givin' me great answers and for the prices i'm seeing, I'd rather get informed opinions.

Thanks for any suggestions!

1. Laptop computer
2. Rolling adjustable laptop table
3. La-Z-Boy recliner
4. High-def big screen TV w/ satellite service, home entertainment center
Tip: forget the mouse, get a track ball, sits well on the recliner arm rest. I use a USB 10-key on the other armrest. You can also network it all together, use a tablet computer to control it all, including lights and coffee machine :P
Oh and don't forget the ceiling fan :D

I'm in it for the money

This Desk has lasted me 7 years and for the money is a bargin. The big selling point is the pull out side desk, that when fully extended can fit two large pizza boxes, or can be used as a great side-bench for working on your rig, if needed.

The desk itself can fit 3 24" monitors and has room underneath for cables, subs, and somewhere to put your PC.

As for chair, that's way to complex to give advice on - except to buy a cushion to complement whatever you buy.

Keyboard - go mechanical if you type a lot, or care about quality. Mechanical keyboards are coming back in style again, with Logitech getting back into them for gamers.

Mouse - too many options to mention, suggest (along with the above) that you go to an electronics retailer and try some of them out. If you FPS, Logitech do have a few well received mices worth your attention, but then so do Razer and Roccat and ASUS and Coolermaster.
