Heh - same.  I was keen to buy a house in a cable-capable area a couple
years back, and none of the real estate agents understood the concept. 
Most conversations went like this

"Is the street cabled?"
"Yes - the property has electricity and phone"
"No... is (then) Saturn available in the street?"
"uhhh - they have a phone yes..."

Just tell the agents that its a wired house for computers, and adds
$3000 onto the value of the property.  They speak dollars.
