had a standing desk for 2 years now. sorta like food...an acquired taste. at first it was hard, but gradually you get used to it. you can stretch, move around, do calf exercises, pace, etc etc...to keep the blood flowing.

also it keeps you motivated because I remember sometimes when I was seated I'd get lazy and always thought twice about getting up.

I definitely appreciate sitting and resting now. Got more muscle tone, I'm about 5lbs less then last year.

Using an Ikea Jerker desk...lets you move it up and down about 3cm at a time until you get the correct ergonomic height. also has lots of shelving options.

use a cloning program like clonezilla to make a perfect copy of your machine. http://clonezilla.org/

formatting and reinstalling all the updates, patches, software, and files takes a while.
