Default Adeqate equipment for business startup
I have two computers, one as a backup and one printer. Do you feel this is adequate to start up my business?

It should be enough. I guess it depends on what services you are offering. This will dictate if you need any additional equipment or software. For example, if you plan on doing transcription, then you may need additional equipment for that. If you plan on being entirely mobile, you may need a laptop and a wireless card.

This question is best answered by knowing what your services will be. You may need extra equipment, such as a fax machine if you plan to offer faxing or need faxing and do not want to use an online fax service. If you need a scanner to scan in photos or documents, that might be something else you will need. But basically a good computer, with a good mouse, speakers and a printer is enough to start.
