Tim, So you met with Crestron?? As AVDude said what was your Buy in requirement??? Since they are bending over backwards...

When and who on staff will be attending Crestron, Pro-install, Essentials, and Intermediate??..What kind of P.C. do you own.?? By the way it will take you at least 3 Months to get those classes under your belt bear min. AFTER your buy-in..and you will need at least those classes to do even your 3 a day homes..

Oh but you are probably goanna hire a CAIP and just sell the stuff right...

LOL.. Right now I know you are saying...What's a CAIP???

Guys,

I figured out how he is doing the 3-a-day automation.
Goes like this:
He builds a box about 4' tall, installs some lights labeled, security, lights, a/v, etc.
He puts a homebrew panel at each entrance to the house with pushbuttons marked-lights, security, a/v, etc.
He hires a bunch of OOMPA-LOOMPAH's to hide in the boxes. When end user presses buttons on panel, light goes off in box and oompah loompah jumps out and handles task.

Example:
Homeowner arrives home and presses security button as he/she enters home. Little oompah jumps out of box and runs to all doors to LOCK them. Home secured!

Three a day, LOL, thats rich!

Keep up the good flames!

AVDude, you just made my day...I was away all week busy working late, and come back to see 2 more pages of histerical crap. Tim...the only way I can describe you is if someone put the most mentally retarded,disabled, colorblind, deaf, and mute person in front of me and you right next to them for a new position, I'd send you packing. You are so full of crap, your eyeballs smell like pooooo. You tried to act like you sell more a month than us, but your quote made you look like a moron. By the way, Fla is one giant hick town with a crapload of old retirees getting in the way of a good pig roast. I live in MA...You wanna see real money, come up here you little hucklberry muncher. You can't even buy a tiny house out here for under $300,000. You know...maybe if you pay a little visit to Glendela, the good witch (she's the queen of "reality land") we might actually help you out a little. Oh and by the way. My name "McNasty" was actually given to me by a friend I was stationed with while I was in the military and fought for your rights. It was a name of a pub he went to in england, and it sounded like my last name. You ever been in the military? I bet you sigle handedly took down Sadam right? Oh wait...I bet you were a Ranger huh? oooh oooh...No, you were a Green Beret? You are making yourself look so stupid and ignorant it sad.

Note: In no way did I mean to dis respect all the mentally retarded,disabled, colorblind, deaf, and mute people in this world by comparing them to "Little Timmy".

Maybe he's busy writing his new best-seller:

"Home Automation- 3 days or less"
"If I can do it, You can do it"

Or maybe he's starting his own control system line

Watch out AMX & Crestron, Here comes

cards and flyers....

Was this Timshows ad that I saw in the back of Popular Science?:

Be A Professional System Integrater in just one week. No special tools required.

Gross $45,000 per day using our 3 house per day mega plan.

Don't be fooled by imitators, we are the real McCoy.

JimmyJoe purchased our program and after one short week listen to what he had to say: Last week I couldn't even spell System Integrater, and now I are one!

In a candid interview, one of our happy satisfied clients said: Anybody out there got one of Brent's air-dropped business cards? I lost mine and I really need it!

Act right now and receive the "how to protect your assets and chose the right lawyer" package at NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE!

What would you expect to pay for this road to riches home study course? Well folks, 2 easy payments of $19.99 and it's all yours. Money back if not satisfied.

(I know the "money back if not satisfied" scam. When you realize you've been screwed, you call and they say "Sorry, but you can't have your money back. We are perfectly satisfied with your money")

Anyway Tim, whatever happens, I hope you find your dreams. I just get frustrated with crackpots shooting from the hip. I saw a vinyl window guy do an entire house in one day. He had a 12 man crew and it was like watching a symphony. More organized than an ant farm. Can you port that over to home automation? Hmmm, I'm getting one of Brent's cards!

I LOVE it when people take un-educated shots at a valid piece of information! Guess his profile DOES say alot about him!

It is...HERE anyway...CALL THEM and find out!

A month of home automation $300,000 to $800,000

Check the post again...YOUR math is way off!

Population of Denver 4 million

I said, "around 4 million in a 30 mile radius."
So I'm SLIGHTY off here, as Colorado Springs, which I was thinkgin of as well, is 52 miles away...sooo, 4 Million within a 60 Mile radius...that better? Go to the US Sensus web site and prove me wrong. Colorado has 4.5142 Million people, of those, approx 85% live within 65 miles of Denver!

Having your bullshit boots on...

If you're already full of shit (as your e-mail addy would BEERLY suggest, then what good is having bullshit boots?
