osx - you do need to hook it up to an existing controller but that is very easy to do and since you are a computer guy this would be a walk in the park. You can hook it up to nearly any controller so whatever you have will most likely work... you could take a dinosaur age controller from when irrigation started or the cheapest you can find and this will work and make it efficient.

Bill - its not a matter of your lawn not being able to survive in the *climate that its in (people in kentucky with kentucky blue grass still have brown spots without irrigation), people want green lawns... perfect uniform green lawns and they will irrigate to get this. in fact an estimated 10,000,000 people in the US irrigate (including businesses)... so this device is for those 10 million that want beautiful lawns.
People wont take that alternative of changing their grass because they will still get brown in the summer. Another alternative that I support however in synthetic lawn with the ET for indigeneous plants and gardens.
What kind of grass do you have that you dont have to mow? or is it just tall?
