2 general X10 questions from a newbie

[Scott Crowther <scrowther@xxxxxxx>]

2 general X10 questions for you all:

1. Computer controlling. If I buy a basic computer conrolled X10 kit,
do I need to leave the PC on all the time, or can I program the interface/
transmitter to automate and then switch off?

2. Related to the blind opening thread, the swish autoglide seems to be
discontinued. Anyone know of any other automated curtain systems that
are available?

thanks

scott

I looked for a similar sort of thing earlier this year but couldn't find
any
online stores in this country but came across - http://www.mockett.com/ who
seem to sell just about everything.
