We use Aerons here at Carbine.

I only endorse them if you sit in them as intended with both feet on the ground 
and sitting squarely with your desk.  If you're one of those slouches, tucks 
one leg under the other, or sits with asymmetrical posture, you might find the 
Aeron uncomfortable because of the hard plastic frame.  I've actually pulled 
muscles between my shoulder blades just from casually turning and leaning one 
my side to talk to somebody across the room.  I'd also only go with the Aeron 
if you have a lumbar support device included.  If it's mesh-only, you're back 
will be screaming at your before long.

I bought an Aeron for home from my local 'Room and Board' for $425 on clearance.

As for Paul, you can get decent office chairs at a Scandinavian or Danish 
modern furniture store...or at least get some leads to good suppliers.

Subject: OT: Ergonomic chairs

Hey all,

Does anyone have recommendations for good, adjustable, ergonomic chair? We all 
spend a lot of time sitting, so I figure this is probably a good place to ask. 
A Herman-Miller Aeron Chair is a no-brainer, so if anyone has an alternate 
suggestion, I'd appreciate it!
