This $25 Cardboard Sit-Stand Desk Means You No Longer Have An Excuse To Sit
“It’s possible to spend hundreds-or even thousands-on a sit-stand desk that will remind you to get up if you’ve been slouched in front of your computer too long, or even train you to stand longer if you’re out of shape. But if all you need is something to pop up and down and hold your computer, now it’s possible to buy that for $25.”
