I don't know about that statement Dan since there are a few ladies on here who might take exception, but to do what you suggest in this room would actually be quite easy. It's only a paneled wall and the electric boxes can be accessed from the closet in the other room. So it wouldn't be an overly large deal to tap a switch off of the box and mount it beside the desk.

David, This is the handyman list. If you are afraid to demolish a few walls, play around with 120 volt, 15 amp circuits, fish wires, and add new switches, then you should trade in your tool belt for a garter belt. *GRIN* Yeah, the other issue with this solution is that it requires a blindy to turn on the light to use the computer, unless you installed a switch that only controlled that outlet and not the lights. And I thought I was being green by not having a monitor at all, and never turning on the light to work at my desk. -- Blue skies. Dan Rossi Carnegie Mellon University.
