Re: "These office space providers rent desks, cubicles, conference rooms, and other resources to new and small businesses that aren't yet ready to take the full plunge into office space in a notoriously expensive market...."

Why bother to "rent desks, cubicles, conference rooms, and other resources..." when all your business can be done from the comfort of your Home-Office on your Computer Desktop; besides, you save time and money traveling to and from the rented offices!!!
