RE: Microsoft SCP Site just released.



Blatantly stolen from another HA list posting:

Top 10 Signs Microsoft Has Automated Your Home:

10. You now pay a yearly fee for each switch in your home.
9.  You are prompted to accept a licensing agreement before making coffee.
8.  Patches for your toaster control module come out weekly.
7.  You were forced to upgrade the driver for your bedroom ceiling fan twice
last week.
6.  You can't legally use all of the lights in your house concurrently.
5.  A virus has taken over your controller and is using it to turn on and
off the Christmas tree at the Whitehouse.
4.  Your home automation protocol is "Like X-10, Only Better!"
3.  Your new garbage compactor requires you to throw everything away twice.
2.  You replace every switch, outlet, and module, and controller in your
home every two years.
1.  At least once a day you are force to stop your current task, close all
of your windows, and shut down and restart your home.
