I have an Anthro desk (http://www.anthro.com) at home that I really like,
and would absolutely love to have one of their desks that you can raise or
lower, if I was a rich man. I also looked into some sit/stand chairs a while
back, but they can be pricey, too!

I opted instead to create a walkstation by adding a second monitor to my
computer, putting it on a tall shelf on the wall, and moving my treadmill up
to it. A plank of wood across the handles of the treadmill to hold the
keyboard and mouse, and I now burn 300 calories an hour while working! I've
had it set up for probably over a year, now, and love it.

Unfortunately, liability concerns have prevented my workplace from adopting
the idea for my 9-5.
