We setup the guest bedroom as a full second office, so Pauline could use it for studying, since she'll be around more often during the day and having more to do in the coming months. Before that we were both sharing the main office area (a 300-ish sq. ft. loft), with the guest bedroom as a place either of us could use as another work area if we wanted a closed door etc. The new setup for her looks great.
As part of that, she moved her computer (a five year old Win98 laptop) in there as well. Rather than running Ethernet cables we bought a wireless card (only $100). Getting it to work, all I can say is, its definitely not a Mac. Took several hours of futzing to get it to talk to our Airport and then properly routing traffic. Some of the things that needed to be mucked with are not exactly the kind of thing ma-and-pa consumer are going to figure out either. Scary.
