actually, wireless at home isn't always an insecure environment - it
depends on how you treat it. if you start with the assumption that it's
an untrusted segment of your network and tunnel everything crossing the
wireless over ssl/ssh, it's no less secure than the vpn you're probably
running to get back into the office...
unlike quality, security often *can* be bolted on afterwards. :) it just
depends on how much setup time / hoop-jumping you're willing to invest.
