Improve your home for the holidays
These four projects will not only improve your guests' experience, but also add to your own quality of life all year round.
Offer on-demand movies
Cost: $99
Turn that guestroom television with basic cable into a hotel-like entertainment system -- minus the monthly fees for on-demand programming. With the new Apple TV, which connects to the web via your wireless network, guests can order movies and television shows from your existing Netflix subscription, iTunes (for $4 a movie), or free websites like Hulu.com.
