Pretty good argument, but the key word is need, is it not? Does anyone really need one of these? They must not be a necessity since such a short time ago nobody had one. In reality, I say this is not a gamebreaker. If you choose to deduct the entire cost of one of these units and you do get audited, it may fly through with no problem, or they may allow a percentage. (1/3, 1/2, whatever) Probably not a big deal. Probably worth a try.
