Calories burned with TypingElectric, Manual, or Computer 102 calories per hourAssuming a body weight of: 150 lbs

This is equivalent to eating any of the lines of the following table.
Quantity Description Cals
0.4 Grande Starbucks Caffe Latte - Made with whole milk 272
0.1 McDonald's Big Mac - With cheese 704
1.3 Glasses of wine (3.5 fl oz) 79
0.4 Snickers Bar 273
0.5 Cans of Coca-Cola 207
3.4 Carrots 30

My question is the activity of eating one of these burns 102 calories or is it that if you sit ont he computer for an hour you can feel guilt free to eat a Snickers bar? Hmmmm
I just can't believe this is acurate! I walked 2 miles on the treadmill at lunch and didn't burn much more than that. It seems like everyone would be siting at the computer if that were the case.
