The Walking Desk (or one reason why the podcast was late)
by BlackThunder on Jan.25, 2011, under Hardware, News
It’s no secret, I am not a small guy. But over the last year things have gotten a little out of hand. This year needs to change and while I was in the middle of switching desktops I also switched out my desk. the work that I do requires a lot of sitting in the car, sitting at the customers house and when I would get home… sitting in front of my desk. What if I could change the time in front of my desk into work out time. Not hard core, but not sit like I do the rest of the day? Well, the result you can see here:

That’s pretty cool, all the community loves you guys and we like the work you do so I’ll be selfish and say “hey dude you gotta to stay healthy so you can make us more podcasts!”
. That’s a good idea you had, you can do what you love and burn some cals at the same time!

Simply awesome! Would have never thought of this! I’ve seen it before in offices, but never thought of it for use in home. Talk about a big slap on forehead. I love it! PCPCGames FTW!
