This is the cheapest I found locally -- just $15! -- but it's not local enough for me to get there economically efficiently. If you're in the NY/NJ area, though ...

My reaction too. What's the cheapest, non-sucky option anybody has used?
Work from home using a laptop. Work at a desk when you want to sit, and at a bar counter when you want to stand.

#34I've been using the steelcase airtouch adjustable desk for about 3 months and I can tell you that it has made a huge impact on my workday. This desk has improved my productivity significantly because I'm no longer bothered my my back or by the low desk/high chair combo I was confined to.
