Just remember that LinuxMCE is 20% media center. Most people coming
into LinuxMCE the first time, think it is a pure media center.

20% is telecommunication
20% is home automation (incl. support for X.10, Z-Wave, EIB/KNX)
20% is security (with web cam support and mobile phone notification)
and the last 20% is a full computing environment with office
applications, internet surfing etc.

It can do magic, but with all magic comes a price. You have to do
things the LinuxMCE way, and get support hardware for it to work nice.
