Stop working and down tools!

Do you spend all your working life hunched over a keyboard and staring bleakly at a computer monitor? If so, there's an interesting piece of software available which can help prevent you getting RSI, aching shoulders, a sore back or whatever else that ails you from working at a computer all day.

I've been trying out Coffee Break Pro X (for Mac OS X only) (http://www.bitjuggler.com/products/coffeebreakpro/) for a while and it seems to do exactly what it says it does. It forces you to take a break from your computer at specified intervals (in my case 30 minutes). I've set it to break for 3 minutes each time, so that I can get up and go an get a cup of tea, read my snail mail, walk around the house, pat the cat, etc. Then I get back to work. Great!
