inahandbasketmy ideal tech/home/life/... stuff setup. someday.
I'm just making this post so that I'll have it to reference in the future when I try to remember what I was lusting after.
House:
Power/heat:
Solar roof, reverse flow with grid for optimal cost/eco solution.
(New geothermal stuff on the horizon, keep an eye on it. Stock tickers: colcf.pk / boref.pk)
good insulation (research needed)
inline water-heater
Critters.
House Design
light light light
hand made furniture, custom (hand made?) lighting
adaptable and well-designed kitchen-social space as well as practical
as much done with sustainable materials as possible
non-traditional heating sources? hot water pipes under the floors...
Workshop/officey space for both of us - - woodworking, etc. for you, craftier for me
Wrestling/punching bag/yoga space with mats, etc.
Entertainment:
Projector (infocus X1) (portable?)
Combo File Server/DVD/DIVX computer (mini-itx solution)
Speakers in every room, independant volume controls.
game system(s)
MAME cabinet
pinball machine? mmm... tasty.
Computers:
Windows Gaming boxen (hooked to projector? otherwise gaming LCD)
Linux Boxen (low power for general use, big slow LCD)
**wall mount over desk?**
gadgets:
camera. Liking the Pentax Optio 555. 5MP, 5x optical zoom. steve's review is positive.
