Computer Chairs

[Shrubwise]

It's time for a new computer chair. I'm spending more time sitting on my ass, in front of the screen. My neck, back are beginning to hurt. I bought a cheap chair from Staples or some shit like 3 years ago and it's just not cutting it.
Like most things in life, I believe you typically get what you pay for. If I am going to be spending long periods of time sitting at my desk, I want to be comfortable. I'm willing to drop some decent $ for a good chair. A Google search for "ergonomic desk chair" yields lots of results, mostly fancy-looking, very expensive chairs ($500+) I would spend the $500 or more, if I knew it was worth it.
What chairs do you guys use? Are you satisfied, does it help support your back, and how much did you spend?

I should take better care of my back, I'm always slouched or hunched over at the computer desk and it does cause me some pain... probably going to be like a lot of my generation in 20-30 years and have chronic back trouble [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I should look into this as well. $500 seems a lot for a chair, think how much it cost them to make.

You're a retard if you throw down $500 on some overpriced executive chair from Staples. The most ergonomic chairs are those low-back, basic office chairs that look like this

Source: I used to work CSR for Apple. This is the exact kind of we were required to use in order for Apple not to have any legal liability for back pain due to sitting for long periods.

Oh, well, if Apple uses those chairs, they must certainly be the best in the world.

Or, maybe apple just too cheap, more like it. I bet the apple executive chairs aren't those [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Having one of those chairs is only half the battle, you need to sit in it properly as well (stating the obvious but how many of us slouch when we're sat down for a few hours?)

Yeah I grabbed an executive office chair from Sam's Club several years back and it still is doing solid. The back goes all the way past your head, very comfy. I think I paid right around $100 USD
