It's funny because when I mentioned to a friend that I was going to use this as a my Final Frame shot he said, "but that house was all about how the technology didn't work, but was nice to look at." And I thought, well that about sums up the Unplggd conundrum. We're all looking for ways to bring tech into our homes in an aesthetically pleasing way, but most of the time things that are good looking don't work well, and things that work well are bad looking. *sigh*
