Was thinking the same, pretty damn expensive and can be a right arse ache to get it working smoothly (make sure you're using 120ohm cable and to terminate if having a big chain) - managed to take out a few martin mac's when i was working a theatre lighting assistant due to dodgy cabling. Plus the only real advantage of the DMX512 protocol is daisy chaining.
Personally i would have stuck with something like X10, cheaper and easy to deal with.....

Not the best of video's, but my mate has 2 dome lights about 12-15" diameter, which go through different colours. Can be set to the beat of music, change through the colours, or stay on one colour

I've just started investigating into a DMX controlled setup in my mums lounge. Controller on the wall, multiple RGB lights with dimming/colour change etc and also a music activated feature.
I'm bidding on some bits on ebay at the moment and starting to do some research about wiring/programming, but I'll let you know :D
