Remember the 80's movie, Electric Dreams? In the film, an architect named Miles buys a personal computer, which proceeds to become sentient, name itself Edgar, fall in love with Miles' neighbor, and during a climactic jealous confrontation, take over all the electronics in Miles' home.
It was a light romantic comedy with a fun soundtrack and an almost endearingly naive view of how technology actually worked. But it was pretty ahead of its time in positing a fully automated home run by a digital brain.
Now, of course, Edgar's smart home basically exists, although it's thankfully a little more benign than one run by a lovelorn PC. In fact, this assortment of 20 smart home devices can start getting you closer to the day when all your home operations happen automatically. And to help, everything here is on sale at up to 72 percent off.
