I live in a double wide, and my problems are different.  My wife has
asked that I keep computer presence in the living/dining room to a
minimum, preferably just the MAME cabinet, which means the third bedroom
is just computers.  I don't have to worry about landlords, but I am
concerned about floor loading.  

I also am looking at a future problem, because our second child is
currently 7 months old, and unemployment has delayed the building of the
computer building, and soon I have to figure out how to find a room for
the boy, and still fit the computers.

Life as a single accumulator in rented housing has problems, but life as
a married with children accumulator in owned housing has its own little
set of challenges. :-)

I got out of being married in rented housing ASAP, but even then the
computers had their own room.
