As a side note, I'm surprised that that site's FAQ appears to be advocating computer use on the treadmill but makes no mention of static discharge. In the winter, our treadmill becomes a giant Van de Graaff generator, unpleasant to use if you don't constantly ground yourself on a handrail. I gather this has not been a problem for you?
I just started using it. Maybe I can try the wrist straps used by electronics workers to protect against static buildup. We'll see.
I got a static wrist strap which helps. (Every day, not just in winter!)
