I'm using a Computrainer and, yes, it was expensive.  However, there are used ones 
available at
discount and I cannot recommend mine too highly.  One cited advantage of Computrainer 
over other
products seems to be that its power control is the most accurate of any such products 
available.

In combination with the lactate zone checking which has to be done by a lab (e.g. Peak 
Centre), the
precise control of watts has allowed me to do workouts I was never able to do before.

Others to consider are models from Tacx which I'm told are also useable though 
apparently the power
calibration is nowhere near as accurate or consistent as the Computrainer.
