Would appreciate your opinion on this.
I know I'm not a business user (maybe I am in a sense though) but I think this would be a good idea. These forums are generally for discussing anything to do with our services but we do indeed have a general chit-chat forum so maybe a 'business lounge' forum or something similar might be a good idea.
Glad someone agrees 
I have looked at a few boards of this type, my bank has one and doesn't seem to get much use but for me it seems like the perfect forum. Obviously the people here on business products are likely to have a business 
but no-one seems to talk much about what they do. I have various things I often spend a lot of time surfing about for answers to regarding tax/accounting which I'm sure some of our other business users may have came across and found solutions to before. I might even be in a position to help others out.
The upside of this with us all being PN members can talk free on SIP phone as much as we want
I might be needing some printing done but end up talking to someone in the business forum who has a printing firm about best settings for their router. Add to that the amount of users PN has visiting the boards and it smells of a wasted opportunity.
In these times if one good connection can be found in the board it's been worth while, I'm always in here when I should be working anyway so at least I can pass it off as work
