    a good ergonomic office chair?

    since i've started my new job, i've pretty much become an excel/database/powerpoint/ect bitch, and am working minimum of 12 hours a day. needless to say my office chair isnt holding it's own.

    anyone have any recommendations for a good chair? I don't need something rediculously expensive, but i can get up to $600 covered from work, so i might go a bit over that if its really worth a bit of my own money.

    TIA

    actually i'ts pretty funny to sit on them, you find yourself bouncing around ALL the time, but they are comfy! they fit you're budget and theres a dealer in the USA.

        Mesh Chairs are the only way to go. Leather and cloth are both too hot.

                That's why you have air conditioning in the office.

                  You can get a Herman Miller Aeron for around $700. I'd look into them.

                          You'd like to think Beanz. Our AC runs at 83F at times... I've said "fuck it", I've been known to wear t-shits and sandals to client meetings.

                          Anyways, you'd like Mesh. Anytime you beef, there is no sound.. just a pffffttt sound and then a complaining office mate complaining that a dead rat is in the ductwork.

                            A few guys at my office have these HGaddict, I personally have never sat in one, but I'm sure they are nice.

                              Fuckin' hell, dude. That blows. I have the AC in the house set to 69 at all times. Fuck the heat.
                              As for mesh, yeah, total comfort. I have an arched back so I have to be able to have a lean back. Sitting straight up hurts way too much. I don't know how the white man do it. Must be all of that penis in the anus.
