[OPLINTECH] Security Essentials Question

[Eric Maynard]

Ed,

I think that we all would most definitely qualify as small businesses, but
then there is that whole "home-based" portion.

I don't have any answers, but I would be very interested to learn what you
find out as I was hoping to switch my public machines to it and save a
little $$$.


thanks,
