Yes, I get all that. I have a double office in my home. What I don't have is the cost justification, and for that I need to get real cost of commercial real estate with all the associated services. <BR>

Keep the compute power in a colo somewhere, and let the developers work from home. pay the devs more and save the office expenses. :-) An extra $K per month per person would be pretty good incentive. <BR>

I don't know the answer to your question, but don't forget to consider the "instant" office companies like Regus where you pay a flat rate and they provide all the real estate, building, infrastructure, staff, receptionist, janitor, etc.<BR>
<BR>
I have no idea how economical they are.<BR>
<BR>
If rolling your own, I would imagine prices would vary dramatically depending on whether you're in the city of Atlanta $$$, Buckhead $$$, Alpharetta $$, Norcross $$, Cumming $, etc.<BR>
<BR>
It would probably also depend on how much data infrastructure you need and how much equipment (and power) each developer needs.<BR>
<BR>
Sincerely,<BR>
<BR>
