"The forum wont let me post attach the Vue file (?)."

No, I think just jpg or gif, not even png! It has to do with php and streaming MIME types into a database, but that's boring...

"Is then 1 unit in Vue close to one inch?"

It's just a 'logical unit' as it really is in any 3D app. It has no relationship to any 'real world' measurement. You can, I think, do a reasonable job of simulating light decay by modifying settings on indivdual lights though.

"hey ! try with object in your room ! place some chairs and play with shadows and light... you can see the results on radiosity... in an empty room result could be always strainge..."

True, if you add some objects and textures then the inaccuracies are totally unimportant! If you're really into rendering empty, flat white, rooms with single lightsources though... :)
