Lucky you. Couple of friends of mine chose the 'data cabling' option from 
the electrical contractor for their new homes (maybe 2-3 years ago) when 
they were under construction. The rails on the wall were equipped with 
RJ11 connectors! Totally useless for LAN, but ok for phone cables and 
thus xDSL. Another note -- I would use virtualization these days when 
several OSs are needed.
