However, in my experience, the NeXT system is much less RF-noisy than many other systems that are consumer-certified. On the other hand, apartments are pretty bad because there might be a TV set on the other side of the wall against which you put your cube. Many people may have cubes in their apartments; only if neighbors complain will anyone do anything about it. (Or, if you happen to emit enough RF to blow up FAA communications . . .) -tom
