In general, my friends and colleagues consider Apple to be among the most – if not the most – innovative companies in the world, able to see and create trends long before anyone else. Here’s something I’d like them to consider: designing a stand-up desk for my PowerBook.
I want something stylish and, if possible, portable. I am spending a lot more time on my computer and, as a result, a lot more time sitting down. Most of my friends work in public relations or advocacy. A small group of us were together last week and we concluded that over 10 years in PR amounts to more than an extra 10 pounds!
Sitting – thinking – writing – typing – eating and coffee drinking: it all ads up. Lets keep social media tipping the scales – but in a good way.

You know what LHM, you are right. We spend more time in from of the computer then away from it. If staying in front of the computer is going to add pounds, then I am simply SOL. No matter where I turn, the computer is needed in some form of way, shape or form. Apple or whoever needs to come up with something that is going to keep us active while working in front of the 13-20 inch screen/monitor. Who would have thought Nintendo, as old school as they are, would create a system where you have to be physically involved!! I love the Wi!! I get some of the best work outs by bowling or playing baseball!
Well…whoever is listening/reading, I can’t afford to add on anymore pounds…So get on your grind and invent something!
