If you're willing to spend $400, what's $300 more to get the best chair ever made? I probably couldn't justify the expense right now, given the unbelievably effed-up state of my current financial affairs, but I assume your circumstances are much better than mine, and if I was financially stable and spending my days playing poker in front of a computer screen for long stretches of time, I wouldn't hesitate to spend $700 on an Aeron, in spite of the fact that $700 sounds like a ridiculously high amount of money for a chair. The guy who used to have my office ordered an Aeron with company funds just before he got fired (they were none too pleased with his picking out a $700 chair, for what it's worth), and I'm the lucky beneficiary. I know nothing about good $400 chairs, but I figured I'd let you know that Aeron chairs are every bit as great as you're hearing.
