Well, let's not confuse an *actual* house with a "hoped-for" house ("a bird in the hand...").

After my lightning strike of a week+ ago, I'd think hard about a long cable run (mine are very long - dare I say unusually long for a residence, the cable runs the length of the house and back, plus the height of the house becuse that was the easiest run.

While I'm on the subject of lightning, my list of damaged items increased to include an 80 hour Replay unit. The unit has a lifetime activation, so I'm considering sending it back to Replay for repair. The repair is $150, but the lifetime activation is retained. The Ethernet port died, and seemingly took the motherboard with it (on power-up the screen stays blank, but the HD spins up and the fan works).
