darry111 Unfortunately the video is not available anymore. As for the size of the program, we can't expect to see $1 homes everywhere we turn, that wouldn't make any sense and frankly it wouldn't help anybody...

January: month of predictions. When it comes to technology, there are plenty of candidates for anyone's list of what to watch in 2014.
