4a) Don't make any assumptions that because you think it's easy, 
anyone else will.

My MythTV machine started with just a wireless keyboard, while I spent two 
weeks building an IR interface, learning remote codes, tweaking buttons, 
until I finally had every remote button working.

I'm the only one who uses the remote. My non-tech wife and 8 year old son 
still use the keyboard, because "it's just easier".
