This guy used a car chair for his computer set up:

Myself...
My LCD monitors are on a skinny \_/ shaped bench with only room for
the monitor stands. Clutterfree.
I mounted a mouse table on my armrest.. Was funny to let go of my
wireless mouse and watch it slide off onto the floor :)

Someday I'll be constructing a tube frame to suspend the monitors.
Got inspired by the hovercraft computer workstation in the Matrix
movies.

Anybody have some interesting custom computer station set ups?

I used a spare bucket seat from a '66 GTO as a computer chair, till a
spring broke and cut my thigh. It was bolted to a wood base made from
2" * 8" lumber set on edge to get the right height, and was raised at
the rear to tilt slightly, to the right position. A set of heavy rubber
casters let it move around.

The computer desk was a solid oak butcher block dining room table
with a plywood cabinet that had adjustable shelves. It had two computer
monitors, a small color TV, a 'C band' sat receiver, and an old Harmon
Kardon 330B stereo receiver.

Looks like I might be visiting the scrap yard to sit in a bunch of
cars to find out which ones have the most comfy seats for computer
work :)
