@Linkat,
sounds like the benefit is going away.
i used to work a lot from home, and often wound up working some crazy hours to meet impossible deadlines.
at the beginning of the year, they changed the software and i couldn't get it to load on my home pc.
so i stopped working from home, and i'm glad i did.
the main advantage was not having to travel in a blizzard, but otherwise i feel like my quality of life has improved -- there's now a clear delineation between work and home...
