Linux Home Autonomation

I read in some magazine that you can make everything in your home work through a linux server. They gave examples like "enter command" and it would turn on lights. Or "enter command" and the TV would turn on and things like that. It seemed pretty cool, but I don't know how well it would work. So has anyone done this before? If so, how?

and I would just re-read the magazine but I have no clue what magazine it was.

LinuxMCE ( http://linuxmce.com/ ) will help with what you want, there's many ways of doing it though, you will need to buy hardware and put effort in, but when completed you should have an impressive setup.
