Focal Locus Workstation: Stand up for your writers

    Standing up is quite a thing at the moment. Apparently, working standing up can make you more productive - Hemingway wrote standing up, and he knocked out the odd word or two - and generally help you be less of a slouching, squid-eyed desk fiend. Most standing desks are still in Segwayterritory (cool idea, but you look like a massive nerd on one), but Focal's leaning-up workstation will keep you on your toes in some style.
