Home automation

Hi all,

Could a readynas ultra be used for this?
Presumably something like linuxMCE installed??

Just wondering if anyone has gone down this route?

Cheers

    Ages ago I ran heyu software with X10 devices, was able to setup crontabs to turn power outlets on and off. These days I have Belkin WeMo devices with WiFi to do similar. Wish I had the cash to re-wire my place for full control.
