This Berkeley Student Has A Cool Dorm Room

I don't know this Berkeleyite's political leanings, but these tidbits about his dorm room entertain me nonetheless:

After several months, Cal-Berkeley freshman Derek Low created "BRAD," the Berkeley Ridiculously Automated Dorm, Berkeleyside.com reported Monday.

Low can remotely manage lighting and curtain positioning, create the perfect atmosphere for homework, set the mood for romance and impress fellow dormies with his "party mode."

Everything is designed to work through voice commands, wireless remote or a computer application. Low even has a motion detector that will turn on the lights and open the curtain when he returns from class, Time magazine reported.

Sounds a little bit like my room at Aria last summer.
