Mike Pilgrim and IKEA Poäng
September 29 2010, 7:05 AM
Mike “Dive into” Pilgrim interviewed on usethis.com about his home setup. (via HN) One of curious things was that he sits on IKEA Poäng.
As one commenter noted:
I like the Poäng chair from IKEA, but I don’t know how anyone can sit in it all day long at a desk. It’s a lounge chair.
Mark’s answer:
And I don’t know how anyone can sit in a desk chair all day long.
Here’s how it works: wireless mouse on a table next to me. Keyboard on my lap (with the wire plugged into a front-side USB port). Feet up on the matching Poang footstool. Monitors about six feet away from me on a regular desk. Appropriate text sizes in Emacs and terminal, and appropriate zoom levels in Chromium. (Chromium remembers per-site zoom levels automatically.)
