Built In Home Office Furniture

I am building a home office. Most L-shaped corner desks I've seen have drawers on one side and a storage compartment on the other. Though stores show storage area used for CPU, they are not vented/engineered for that. I can vent using a 2 inch hole saw and a 120 V AC 3 inch CPU/Hobby fan mounted onto back of desk - without destroying integrity of structural soundness according to the furniture Co's engineer.
Is 65 CFM too much? Or is 24 CFM too little?

it wont even be close to enough ... if u are enclosing the pc box i would say u would need (10) 2" fans at least .. i would open the back and leave the front open .. or plan some space on top to set the box would be even better ..

The lower class Romans (plebeians) lived in apartment houses, called flats, above or behind their shops. Even tradesmen might have chosen to live in an apartment-building compound over their store, with maybe renters on the upper stories. Their own apartments might be quite roomy, sanitary and pleasant, occasionally with running water. But others were not that nice.
In the flats an entire family (grandparents, parents, children) might all be crowded into one room, without running water. They had to haul their water in from public facilities. Fire was a very real threat because people were cooking meals in crowded quarters, and many of the flats were made of wood. They didn't have toilets in the flat so they had to use public ones.
The upper class Romans (patricians) lived in single family homes, which in Ancient Rome meant the great grandparents, grandparents, parents, and kids of one family lived in a home together. Homes were made, quite often, of brick with red tile roofs, with rooms arranged around a central courtyard.
The windows and balconies faced the courtyard, not the street, to keep homes safe from burglars. There were paintings on the walls and beautiful mosaics on the floor. There was very little furniture, and no carpeting. Wealthy Romans might have a house with a front door, bedrooms, an office, a kitchen, a dining room, a garden, a temple, an atrium, a toilet, and a private bath.

Roman housing was similar to our houses today because they had a kitchen, bedrooms, a front door, an office, and a dining room. However, nowadays most people have carpeting in their homes and don’t have mosaics on the floor. Nearly all of us probably have more furniture in our homes than the Ancient Romans. Also, almost all homes now have running water and a toilet, while in Rome, only the wealthy Romans did. Another major difference is that now all homes have advanced technology (computer, television) and in Ancient Rome that was unheard of.

Our friends and we are business partners for 1 1/2 years. After business have slow down for a few months, They decided to quit at the begining of the August. They resigned on August 6. Their reason is because they wanted to go on themselves to become our competitor. And since they own the building, they want us to move out by Friday August 10. We kinda knew that they were going to quit in August and we knew we we're going to move out, but we didn't think that they're going to kick us out that soon. We had to rush and find another office and would have to settle whatever is out there. Our new office is not ready yet, so because we have to turn our keys in, we move our office supplies and furniture in our garage temporary. They told us they are making ways for us if we should fail our current company. Yeah Right! If that was the case, they wouldn't mind given us 30 days notice. And they even said that we don't need an office and just do it at home instead.What would you do next?
Oh one thing I forgot, they are related to us too. We didn't need a lease because he was the landlord and the tenant all together. They are our regional Manager and we are somewhat their branch manager. But now that they quit, our co-founder promote us to regional manager. Maybe it happen for a reason. Maybe they are not meant to be in the picture.

May I humbly suggest this. And this is something that both Frank Sinatra and Vanessa Williams said.

SUCCESS IS THE BEST REVENGE.

Go on and SUCCEED.

Hello Everyone,

I live in a corprate housing apartment and had MAJOR water damage from a broken dishwasher pipe from the floor above me. I was out of town that night and came home to find 2 laptops, and the rest of my home office distroyed by water. 3 inches of water in my living room, all furniture, eletronics, entire kitchen, printers, faxes, clothes and so on.. I estimate close to 15,000 in domages if not more. Do i go after the apartment building or the tenants who left their dishwasher on.. The entire ceiling drywall is caving in, wall are pealing and so on. but again I am only renting.. Any Advise?

the person above caused water to flow into your flat and damage your property so you sue him for YOUR damages.

are you insured? you claim on your policy and let your insurance company recover from whoever it wants to.

the flat is in awful state, not what you rented, so you require LANDLORD to reinstate the flat. in any case I think you have an obligation to inform landlord of the damage.

the person above, or the landlord may well be insured so that their insurers pay out, and the landlord or his insurance company may recover from the person above or his insurance company, but you don't have to get into that.

the person above may have a claim against a plumber or someone for bad workmanship, but it sounds like a pipe just broke, which sounds like kiddie damage or similar accident.

your problem will be if the person above is a man of straw, and not insured. you can sue, but if there is nothing to get, it is just a waste of legal costs.
