1) Home cinema with lighting presets, motorised screen, bloody big amp
no windows.

2) In wall touch screens for info & control of house.

3) An Electronics degree, I priced one up at nearly 10K !!!! (and even
then that's just the course, not the cost to pass it :-)

4) Linux based Tivo-like device.

5) Whole house audio.

Plus, if I've won the lottery I can retire and develop all my HA kit &
the skills needed to build it.
