I don't think this is fully lying down [1], looks more like dentist chair kind of a setup. My chair can almost recline that much and it feels weird looking up but I would probably get used to it so I'm not that skeptical it would work.

I just wonder if the benefits are there and if there are any drawbacks.

How does the magnetic desk work? I’ve got a Moonlander keyboard that’s mostly plastic, how would it stay in place?

I'm hoping that the next generation of VR headsets will be good enough (mainly in terms of resolution) that I'll be able to use one for coding. Seems the majority of the $5k is just for the fancy hanging screen.

Yeah looking into the alternatives it doesn't seem like there's anything significantly cheaper (maybe I missed it).
