You need a membership though right? I think I still have a Sam's Club membership. Probably the same stuff.

i would guess so. i looked for a bit, ikea chairs suck, target had some alright stuff but when you have a 20 page spandex thread to surf every day you need something sturdy!

maybe you can ask about a day pass, i know BJs allows people to have a free day with a spending limit, maybe costco will do the same. but i am sure sams will have something similar

How big of a harddrive on the PS3?

80, but I have a 300 gig external plugged into it. I only use it for movies. I am not really a gamer. Sometimes I play my Wii, but that's it.

Cool, thanks for the help man. I am going to try Office Depot first, then who knows. Hopefully I will find one there.

Not really better, just a better social game. My friends like to bowl and play darts, girls seem to really like it. I just play with friends. I am not the kind of guy who can sit and play games for hours by myself.

Seems like I broke mine when I was drunk last night. Thing is leaning one way now. Where is the best place to get a new one?

What is your budget for this chair?

If you spend a lot of time at your desk it is worth investing in a comfortable, functional chair: one that you can pump up and down, swivel, tilt back and forth, that has good seat and lumbar support, etc.

The kneeling chair (below) is nice in theory, but over the long term I don’t think you’ll find them very comfortable. In addition, although they tend to be on wheels, they are usually of a fixed height.  I have used them extensively in the past and they get old real fast.

The Herman Miller Aeron Chair (below) is a great chair, but many people balk at the price.

Yes, I have to have a chair that swivels, tilts etc. Budget is whatever I think it's worth when I see it and sit in it I guess. The second one is cool, not sure about the first.

Well, the Vaio broke, it just runs in a loop at startup, no windows. They wanted 200 to fix it, but it was like 4 years old. So I bought the Toshiba.

If you are willing to spend, I would definitely get the Herman Miller Aeron Chair!  It offers lots of support and is very comfortable.  The real value of this chair is that it is comfortable over a long period of time.  In mean that in both senses of the phrase: it is comfortable when you have to sit in it for 8-10+ hours at a time and it is also comfortable years after you buy it.  For all practical purposes, I think it is the best chair you can get.  

There are better chairs out there, but they cost thousands of dollars and I think that is hard to justify when you are spending your own money (as opposed charging things to an expense account).

The only negative to the Aeron chair I have observed is that it does not have a very high back.  If you are exceptionally tall (6'3" or taller) this might concern you as tall people need a chair with a high back.  Similarly, if you have an abnormal body (huge muscle mass or very fat, for example) there are other options I would recommend.  If those are not issues for you, I would get the Aeron.

Where do I find these chairs?

I could name a vendor that is nowhere near you and that wouldn’t do you any good.  I suggest you find a nearby dealer online.  Remember, google is your friend.

If you are seriously considering the Aeron note that they come in different varieties and prices.  Some models include the Posture Fit, the Aeron Lumbar, the Aeron Basic, the Aeron Armless, etc.

Depends on your price. If you are a big timer unlike me i like those mess chairs that bay recomended. Don't buy a cheap one though as the mess with stretch out. I got mine at staples. They had like every chair on sale. It was only a hundo and has a massage build in.

Ikea

Their standard black leather office chairs are really quite good.

I bought a chair for my office in Hawaii from Scandia.  Really nice but I did find it amazing I would spend $1200 on a fucking chair but at least it didn't break and it was comfortable.
