This is an interesting article (courtesy a pointer from Scott Rosenberg's blog. Maybe I just like the concept of riding a stationary bike while using a computer. Maybe I should set that up, even though I have an outlet.

Jason (The Ex(TM)) worked for a company for a while that was marketing exercise bikes with a laptop attached to it. As long as you kept pedalling, the computer maintained internet access. But if you stopped pedalling, the connection died. It was terrifyingly behaviorist for me. I thought it was creepy. But apparently health clubs loved them. *shrug*
