RE: [FWP] Perl Fixes My Network (Cable Modem)



And, of course, no discussion of Perl and X10 would be complete without a
link to our good friends at MisterHouse (detailed 3 or 4 issues back in
TPJ).

You'd think that. 

X10 is a low bandwidth network protocol which runs over household 
electrical wiring.  Lets you network and control all sorts of unlikely 
things around the house (lights, fishtanks, TVs, garage doors) 
cheaply. 

Been around for quite a while.  I remember there being a program for 
the C64 that let you control your house.  Only recently has it gotten 
really popular and cheap.

Yet one of these kittens is not prepared to have a good time.  It 
stands alone, away from the crowd.  Its your kind of kitten.  And now 
the time has come to climb into that car and shake the paw of destiny.
