Gaming Chairs?

Anybody here have a gaming chair?
Id read of a person using a gaming chair as a monitor with his MicroBr recorder bout a year ago, I picked one up bout Christmas time and its seen alot of use since.
Mostly I use it as a guitar chair, its a pretty relaxed position.
Its got an 1/8" stereo input and output that in the past Ive used to connect my MP3 player, or CD player up to to play along with, mostly backing tracks or the CDs that come with the books I purchase. And of course my MicroBr hooks up with it just like my MP3 player, but to be honest I havent really used it for this as of yet(too many toys, not enough time).
But lately Ive been hooking my drum machine(SR-16) up to it in mono...until today!
I ordered a Hosa cable and can now hook it up in stereo...Im pretty excited to get home and try it out(although I kinda did at lunchtime...but dont tell nobody!)
I'll try and take a pic of this setup...but its pretty sweet, I got a sub at my back and tweeters near the headrest...its been pretty fun jammin along with the drum machine in mono already, but this should be much more betta.

Anybody else got one, use one or never thought of one for this use?

I never heard of one before. I Googled it, don't know how popular they are.
The only chair I use for "gaming" is at my friend's poker table.

Ive heard of them but always thought they were stupid........ For gaming. The visual that you've given me is very intriguing, though!
