Hi andre , thanks for the thoughtful and knowledgable post. It gave me a lot to think about. Most of the stuff was pretty new(and therefore useful)to me , but the part I`ve cut out is something I`ve read about. I think the rule about a room with ONLY office appliances comes in when you get into the subject of Tax-writeoffs. The way it works here in Norway is , if you can prove that you use a certain percentage of your home for business-only , you can write that percentage off as -expenses-. This means , if you use a fourth of your flat as an office , with a phoneline/fax and other "office stuff" , you can write off a fourth of your rent on your income-taxes. Maybe I`m way off target on what it`s like in the US , but I saw an opportunity to contribute........AND I TOOK IT!! :-) Seriously , this thread is VERY interesting to me despite the low :loop content. yours , Thomas
