This bit sums up how much of a shame it is to waste this stuff on them:


"I can be watching four football games simultaneously while enjoying a
beer and the view," Nicholas boasted.
"Have you ever done that?" I asked.
"No," he admitted with a laugh. "I have no spare time. But
friends who've
come over tell me it was great."

Have you read the links at the bottom of the page!

"Ellison doesn't just listen to music or movie soundtracks in his home
theater; when a "Jurassic Park" dinosaur roars, Ellison wants to
feel like
he's the one being stomped. But where could Green conceal the
3,000-cubic-foot subwoofer that produces that movie-theater-quality sound?
"It could be the world's largest subwoofer," marvels Green, who
solved the
problem by housing it in a former swimming pool beneath the home theater
room. To work on the subwoofer, Green had to go through a hatch,
submarine-style, then descend a ladder."

Oh purlease....

"Like the custom "aroma system" that pumps one of six
fragrances into
selected rooms with a tap on the touch pad. Wilkinson details the
possibilities: "After a rough day at work, you can punch up 'Bitter
Orange,' 'Key Largo,' 'Lavender Lace,' 'Northern Rainforest' or 'Wild
Rose.' "

Love it !!

Great link Mark

Just been sent this by Derek Clydesdale...

"Forget your stock portfolio, your mansion and the Porsche.
There's a new status symbol for Silicon Valley's rich and nerdy - That's
right, your Head End -- the control room housing those floor-to-ceiling
banks of servers, routers, computers and other requisite gadgets for the
ultimate wired home. The bigger your Head End, the more whiz-bang your
villa. And if you're a high-tech mogul who craves living on the bleeding
edge, you want the Mother of All Head Ends"
