I switch between a 75cm exercise ball (without a rolling stand) and a standing desk. The desk is nothing fancy, just a 3-drawer lateral file that's about the right height. Using these has definitely reduced my back problems. I also just got an anti-fatigue floor mat and that's been a nice addition. links below...
