Anyone play from a recliner?

[Eihli]

I'm trying to figure out how this setup would work with a recliner that would fit under a desk and maybe a wireless trackball or some kind of swival armrest for a mouse.
Anyone have any experience with this?

I'm wondering the same thing, a recliner sounds sweet. I just bought an "ergonomic" office chair and I think it blows to be honest.

Anyone know any specific chairs that are very comfortable? Even with all those levers on this thing, can't get it comfy (ex non-adjustable lumbar supports SUCKS when it's not right)

Well, I never had a computer chair to begin with. I used a regular chair for the computer and one day I got the idea to move my two seat couch to my computer replacing the chair. I place the mouse pad (also pen tablet) on the second seat to my right and leave the keyboard on my lap. I lay down in a 120 angle and place my legs on the subwoofer. This feels really goOd after a long day of work. The only problem I have is I'm not comfortable with the keyboard on my lap. I wish there was something for me to place my keyboard on top of. Also, this could be bad for my back.

I got a playstation to USB converter, then I used some language I found somewhere on the internet to write scripts so I could change from table to table and hit the "fold call raise" buttons with my ps2 controller. So now I play from my recliner all the time. It's really nice, you should try it.

They make these cool new things called "laptops". I've only used one a little bit but like it. You might want to check it out.

Spending many hours every day at my computer was causing me pretty bad back pains. I went to Home Depot, bought some supplies and built my own desk on wheels. I use it with my recliner. Here's a picture:

I've been playing from my recliner for the last year.

I have a table on each side of the recliner. On the right side I have a 30"x60" folding table that has the short end at the recliner. My monitor is at the perfect height resting on it. I also store my wireless mouse and keyboard on that table. I have a desk chair behind the table and can turn the monitor and work from the chair. On the left is a typical end table with all my stuff. I have the keyboard in my lap only when necessary and use the mouse on the arm of the recliner. I did make sure to get a recliner with a wide enough arm so the mouse isn't always falling off.
