The article says: "The new home will be made of wood and steel and finished in muted browns and beiges"

It's disapointing enough... that we didn't get flying cars. NOW.... our homes are still going to look the same. Sorta sounds like... the future is here now.

What's wrong with something like that under General Category \ General Discussion?
I personally have no problem with a general discussion part of the forum.
Of course I'm just 1 vote so if everyone else isn't interested in a general category by all means delete it.

While not X10 related, it is Home autmation related. and also General Discussion related. Which as this part of the forum states: "Feel free to talk about anything and everything in this board."

I Agree steven r.

Disney (and others) has provided the imagination and vision that is needed for GOOD home automation. It's the ideas [for using automation] that brought me to the forums. And it's the NEW IDEAS that keep me coming back.

Feel free to talk about anything and everything in this board.

The thread topic seems to fit the definition of the category.

Make that 3 votes. ;)

That Is exactly why I posted the link. New ideas and innovation in Ha should always be welcome in this forum. I for one am anxiously awaiting to see what technologies and ideas they come up with to use in this house and how many I can incorporate (easily with x10) into my own home.
