((This is a three part suggestion...Part one, Get Kinect. Part Two, Get SL on the Big Screen TV. Part 3, go 3D))
Here is an interesting video from an earlier post on Kinect in Jan 2011
Getting plugged in with kinect is when SL hits the big screen TV....
This is a needed feature to complement all the users who attend music events that dance to the music.
Consider this:
NO KINECT - Presently, one attends a LIVE music (which btw, is an awesome experience listening to someone play live and interacting with those in attendance...it really does make for an immersive live experience, unlike any 'streaming' performance from a sat TV or cable) Everyone in the room, of course since this is SL, may interact with anyone else...ok ok
But....all the dancing moves are done by an AO...and yes some nice AO, but not really dancing.
WITH KINETIC - First, Kinect technology is expecting the user to be in a limited space...but for dancing that IS JUST FINE. with Kinect. Don't need to move around, just dance.
Of course, using specific gestures, one could then control actions such as walking, etc. without a lot of body movement, just mostly hand gestures.

[guessing here by experience]
The SL viewers are not compiled for more than a single processor. At best one processor is used. Having used duals, quads and now a 2600k, only one processor is ever used by SL.
As for graphic cards - having installed a 590 - again only see one processor used, so am thinking this is a basic code/compiled condition of SL. So, not sure but have not seen a boost in frame rate using SLI. If there is a trick, I would like to know it! ok

Aaah - meant bypassing any preset TP points. Right, other sim restrictions such as a ban, or age restriction will NOT be side-stepped by the direct TP. That method gets pass having to go thru a entry point preset on the sim.

What was not explained was "how" the person was invited. There are several ways"
1. Offer a TP - that is most direct and will by-pass any sim settings restrictions. (An example, sims may have a preset Landing Point that only owners may bypass; unless a TP is offered. TP are SL way of getting a friend right next to you, so the system ignores most restrictions (except adult ratings).
2. Drop a LandMark - LM on the residents profile page, or drag the LM from your inventory window into a IM chat window with that person. Now - this could fail for a very good reason.....the LM is out of date. IF the sim was moved (Yes they do get moved) so the LM is referring to a former location. The coordinates for the sim may be the same, but the 'universal coordinates' will have changed. That is a definite way for a LM not to work.
3. The sim may be very full of scripts and the servers - both the one your friend is on, and yours - cannot manage the additional scripts. Having a bunch of hair with modifying scripts could be offending. This is a very good possiblity why one person may have problems. This is most likely a long shot, but it is a possiblility.

Consider thse two scenerios:
