When i met my girlfriend 15 or so years ago she would come over and unplug the X10 gear to get lights or fans going because she hated my pronto's. Fast forward to last August when we moved and i installed my surround equipment without the RF base station. This is the first time in a long time i just put the gear in a cabinet under the TV so i didn't bother with emitters.

The first night we were in the new place i got this crazy look with an eye roll after she asked "why isn't the receiver turning on?" and i told her to make sure she keeps the remote pointed towards the TV. Her next statement was "whats up with this rookie installation".
