[dba-VB] OT: MS Office 2010 / MS SharePoint 2010 development system box requirements - please advise

Hi Jim --

Do you mean my family members getting a lot of computing power for "free" from my "mighty" server environment?
(And so I can save quite some money in long run by not funding them in upgrading their laptops and smartphones hardware? :))

Thank you
