It looks too complicated for me, it would probably just make me think I will sit on the ground with my laptop. However I feel the concept could be made to appeal to someone as lazy as me with some simplification - I'm thinking if everything could be focused on the strap.

First, it gets cold to work sitting if it's Spring time (15 degrees Celcius). Is this case, only working standing keeps you warm enough, since the blood is circulating. (In the hot summer, you could work sitting in a shade of a tree.) Second, you can't work sitting on the ground for too long, it's just not ergonomic. I also like my ergonomic Microsoft keyboard, without which I can't code for too long. I like my mouse, etc. So, by sitting on the ground you can do some adhoc work, but you'll go home for serious commitment.
