It's the difference between development and research, John.  Does that 
mean anything to you?  Development for large projects, say Windows, is a 
team thing and best done, according to Bill Gates, at a common site. 
Research, OTOH, is an individual sort of thing and can be done in a 
scattered manner wherein access to support equipment and services is the 
significant issue rather than team interaction.

Do you want to be a part of the solution or just another problem?
