I need my computer to be on my cornea (see my version here: http://www.nanogirl.com/museumfuture/corneacomputer.htm), because no matter how I position myself with my computer I start to compromise my body. In a few years I think I'm going to be lopsided.

agreed... my most productive "thinking time" is when lying around, literally. Gimme ski goggles and a fully gestural/eye-movement UI (wireless thin gloves, eye movement trackers in goggle... hell I'll learn how to enter text by twitching my ears if I need to!) ... and ... and ... I know I know... "gargoyle"... "Steve Mann"...
but for now, iSlouch too. :(

There is also my latest -computer on the hand- animation that you might like, it's called the "dermal display". I worked on this with author Robert Freitas, we are hoping that one day it becomes a reality (and with future nanotechnology applications it could).
You can see it here:
