Office Chatter

As the cost of projectors keeps dropping, more and more businesses – and consumers – are buying them. But to get the most from your purchase, you'll need a projector screen.

When I was  a child my parents had a home office, a mysterious room that my brother and I weren't supposed to go into into. Of course, as typically curious, rebellious and cheeky kids, whenever we were left to our own devices we went straight for the office, opening drawers and climbing under the desk. Hitting the keys on the keyboard, dialling numbers on the phone and pretty much just snooping – being very careful, if we moved anything, to put it back in place. 

In the current economic climate (man, I hate that phrase) more and more people are deciding to set up their offices at home. The advantages are pretty clear: no more brief-but-intimate introductions to the armpits of strangers on the Tube, more flexible working hours and a much tastier lunch are just a few.  I even tried it myself once -  with London brought to a standstill by snow earlier in the year, I had no choice but to go about my day’s work in the safe, warm confinement of my tiny bedroom.
