Well, it would be useful. Only thing , it would be a bit embarrassing when having people over to visit.

I used to have a problem when reading while sitting on that type of "chair" that my legs would go to sleep after a while. Do you find that you get a tingly sensation in your lower extremities if you sit there too long? Try the padded seat too,much more comfortable for extended use! Another draw back seems to be the lack of height adjustment.

Get yourself another monitor and a video card to boot. Much more can be done and then you can go outside and play on the swingset before dark.

Bring your laptop into the restroom instead, thats easier than redoing the plumming, and you can also lock the door and noone will notice, specially if you got awireless pcmcia card...
