That being said I would prefer a *better* solution. The work fine for what I'm doing, but it's rather simplistic and much of the reason is because that X10 is pretty limited. Even though it is limited though, you CAN actually do more than just on/off. You have to have switches that support it, but you can do dimming as well (I use this quite a lot for auto-dimming lights in my kids room). - -- Louis Zirkel / [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems Engineer -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFF3p+1aBHnnVFBPfYRAhlOAJ9rU+2Wc8Tqp+BuZq23hHlb2CTXowCdH5fS V8it8kVYSGDDBQ8GDrmaHb8= =man0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
