RE: Conduit installation

["Aidan Williamson" <fluff@xxxxxxx>]

Got the cat5 but not installing yet. Plan to lay in a couple of counuits
&
string for when I finally decide on where node 0 is going.

Contemplating most of the below. Just skipping the baby cam (not baby,
no
plans for baby) and tumbledryer (won't fit) tho contemplating a module
for
the washer so I can start it an hour before I get home, to avoid stuff
sitting & getting creased (too lazy to iron).

On the MP3 player, has anyone done anything on a purely remote (over
network) network player? Removes the cost of a display and controls.
Should
mean small & low power) Would suit somewhere like kitchen or bathroom
where
less control/variety needed. The alterantive just being speakers fed
from
somewhere else.

Thanks for the suggestions.
