laptops and broadband. It's actually more cost efficient for an organisation to pay for its workers to work from home, and put in all the required technology (phone transfers, broadband, etc.) than it is to have a desk for them in an office and pay rent, electricity, heating, phone, internet, etc. Then the need to travel is eliminated completely.
