My State Farm homeowner's insurance included $3,000 of coverage.
Because I also have a C-64 and printer, etc., I decided to buy
the optional rider ($10 for an additional $5,000 of coverage).

6 months later some scum took everything.  But, one deductible
(when you're talking $8,000+, it's hard to keep track of a few $100)
applied to all home furnishings.  Again, check with your agent
re the business use issue.
