I came across a great house in a great community but I need a little bit extra: a high tech house. The problem: money, I'm on a budget. I'd love to have home theaters, super high tech weather stations and iPads seamlessly installed in all the walls — but this just isn't possible. So my question to the Slashdot community is: how can I build a high tech house that will be the envy of my friends, provide lots of useful gadgets, and not break the bank? Also, as always, the cooler the better!"

Why use an Ipad ? by Alain+Williams · 2012-04-01 02:08 · Score: -1, Troll

If cost is an issue, then use Android based tablets, they are much cheaper than the Apple equivalents that can do the same job. Unless poser value is more important to you than functionality.
