As more and more companies allow their employees to work from home, the need for setting up a home office will increase. However, setting up a home office is much more than just hooking-up your PC to a modem. In the past 4 years, the home-office furniture business has jumped up 31% to $2.5 billion, and computer and related hardware sales continue to skyrocket as more and more people plug-in. This book will walk you through the steps of determining what type of home office will suit you best, choosing the type of equipment required (including types of Internet access), determining the set-up of the office to allow for cost and space efficiency, and keeping the office running smoothly.
A while ago I found myself having to purchase my 7th computer in 14 years. An initial casual interest had turned into a daily necessity for personal business, business-business, communication and fun.The 6th computer had crashed - fine one moment, gone the next (luckily a conversation with a friend had prompted me to buy a zip drive and do a full backup only two weeks before.)I realized I needed to know much more about the options before I purchased, that my peripheral hardware and software needs were steadily increasing, and there were so many terms I just didn't really understand.I found the Home Office Handbook - thank goodness. Rapidly the mysteries became comprehendible. The guides helped me immensely to intelligently determine what I did and did not need - even to predict which future additions would be compatible. Quick tips and a dose of humor kept it from being a chore.I know I saved both time and money (and much frustration.) Thank you, Barbara Butler.

Home Office Handbook is great! It tells you what to do with technology in the home office and not just how to decorate the office. And I needed help. I manage a group of apartment buildings at a univerity town and have an office in one of the buildings and another in my home. This book was a major help in figuring out wht I needed in each office and how to connect the offices. It also helped the technician that was working with me.
