Ah well, the work I do isn't subject to IR35, since I'm not actually a
contractor :-)

Well, that's the point surely?

Given that if I "play by the rules", the CD costs between 2 and 3
times as much as if I "play creatively", then I'm VERY
incentivised to
try to look at such things.

I agree though, if my wife wanted a new laptop, then that would be a
business expense (after all, she's written most of the software we've
sold in the last year.)
