One of my freelance clients recently= bought me a Mirra chair (by Herman Mirra -- oops, Helen Mirren -- oops, Her= man Miller) to use at their office. I've been happy with it so far (editing 3= -4 hours at a time with getting up every 45 minutes or so to stretch; I'm 6'= 4" at 230 lbs, by the way, with blue-green eyes). They also have a Mirra 2 (= "Even Better!" according to HM website), but it was easier to order the Mirr= a (via Amazon) versus Mirra 2 (via HM directly) what with not having to type= in address and such (yes, I take the most direct route when they ask me to g= et it ordered).

At home edit suite I've been using a Swing Seat chair (the back and t= he seat rotate independently; their website ishttp://swingseat.com ) since seeing it at a MacWorld Expo somet= ime in the mid-00's and have been fairly satisfied with it. Though the Mirra= is more modern, more adjustable and more expensive, I'd say (without the sw= inginess), including better support when I'm "leaning in."

And yes, chiming in o= n "No matter what chair or standing desk configuration you choose, remember t= o change position/get up every so often!" There are multiple apps to remind u= s to do this, of course (on Mac, PC, phones).

I have to agree with others who've said that the p= osition is less important than moving around and changing things to keep you= r body from getting over worked or too sedentary in any one position.
So unless I'm on the bridge of a starship and the chairs have a= utomatic sensors that keep my body massaged and moving, I guess I'll have to= stick with my Aeron and working standing up every so often. Which is also w= hy I am looking at an adjustable stool that I can quickly change.
