Hi Clarke!

Many thanks for your advice!

I found in that very same web site one that really caught my eye :P
impressive the "awarded "Best Overall" by Wall Street Journal".

http://www.officedesigns.com/product-exec/product_id/7/Leap+Chair+in+Leather

Looks pretty much like the 1800.-USD one that I found here
in Zurich but for almost 20% less ... that's something :P I was
calling them to see if I could get it shipped here.

Many thanks once more!

Best Regards,
Giovanni

I know what you mean ... I got this transparent one over here:

it is a pain ... no matter how cool my Video Card and Sound System
is like when the Chair is horribly uncomfortable :)

To be honest I really prefer modern designs like the one I found in
the website you sent.
