Multi-Room Wireless Sound System?

abrinton asks: "I just went into escrow on a new house. Of course, first thoughts are to the sound system. I don't want to wire. Anything. I've got a wireless network, so computers are all sorted. But what do I do for sound? I need ideas for a centrally controlled sound system that can use 802.11g for transport. I'd like to have the same music everywhere, or better still, options to play different things in different rooms. I've got access to tons of old PIII laptops, wireless gear, old computers, sound cards, etc to make this work. Has anyone got any ideas or done anything like this?"

    You forgot the - put mirrors in such a way so that the remote works in every room - but aside from that, I think you've covered it.

    Or a cheaper way:

    1. Steal rice burner
    2. Park it in front of asshole neighbor's house
    3. Turn up included boom box "to teh max"
