Creating a Hi-Tech Small Myco-Lab in a Small Room

I want to create a small mushroom growing room in my house. I'm going to attempt to grow various strains of various species. What would be a good set-up that would assure 100% chance of success for my hobby?
I was thinking about setting up shelves around my room. Would this be smart?
Also, money isn't an issue with me, so buying the best most expensive equipment won't be a problem, unless of course the setup is at like $2,000 for this small room
Where could I look on the net to find a good dialogue or whatnot to get me started? I've noticed so far that shroomery does not have what I'm looking for

i do recomend buyign a magnetic stirer, and stir bars.
Make a LC using Malt Extract and Dextrose. Your success will greatly increase. Nothing is 100%, but one can get close.
a magnetic stirer is the best thing i have bought

Dude you can grow pounds of mushrooms with like $100 worth of shit from Walmart.
Maybe a little more if you don't have a pressure cooker or a humidifier.
Nothing "high-tech" is really needed.

This is a complicated question with a complicated answer. The methods involved are subject to preference and experience level. What methods, at this point, have you put to use?

It's not the equipment that makes the cultivator, Its the cultivator that makes the equipment work for him/her.
