MEET THE 2.0 KACZOR FAMILY

Dad Scott used to drive his kids to the office to download important emails. Now his real estate business comes to him in his networked home office...when he and his wife aren't too busy reliving their rock-n-roll youth 2.0-style, that is.

AFTER PRODUCTION

Formerly techno-phobic Scott embraced his new lifestyle, maintaining his own real estate website, and even using the new security webcams to comically "bust" Lora goofing off, and create and upload a video of the event himself. 7-year-old Zach discovered the joys of LineRider.com, where you can create your own animated rollercoasters. Mom Lora even got in on the fun, too, before shifting her powerful laptop into business mode -- she opened a hair salon with her friend Diane on Jan. 15!

A few months after hooking them up with the rockin'-est home makeover Yardley, PA, has ever seen, the My Home 2.0 crew caught up with the Kaczor Family to see how they were doing...

DURING PRODUCTION

The Techno-Gurus turned Scott's home office into a fully functional place of business, with a smokingly fast computer and pro-caliber printer that make his photocopied realty fliers a comical memory. The piece de resistance, however, was the Rock-'n'-Roll Playroom, which makes every game of Guitar Hero feel like a sold-out stadium show, with the flip of one oversized, Frankenstein's lab switch.

Snagged a couple more bite-sized nuggets of the Kaczors' episode. In this one, Lloyd and Brian survey the "Before" phase of the Kaczor home...

BEFORE PRODUCTION

Scott and Lora Kaczor were high school sweethearts, together since their mohawked metal days in the 1980s. Lora is now a hair stylist, and knew a thing or two about computers. Scott is a real estate agent whose cyber-knowledge was pretty much zilch, save for a few tips his 5- and 7-year-old sons gave him. According to oldest son Zach, he didn't "even know how to, like, click!" Ouch.

Right now, it looks just like an ordinary house in an ordinary Cul-de-sac. But in a matter of days, this block in Yardley, Pennsylvania...
