Trapped in the Body of a Microwave, a Tragically-Modded PC
Since I don't have either a microwave or a desktop computer, I don't know why this PC-microwave hybrid with an LCD bolted to the door speaks to me, but it just does. It could possibly be something to do with the fact that I still haven't had breakfast and it's way past breakfast time here in Yurp. [Hacked Gadgets via Boing Boing Gadgets]

Holy crap. I didn't see that one coming. Do not, I repeat do not try this yourself, you boneheads. Now, who wants to take a guess at what sly viral marketing this is and what it's going to end up trying to sell us? [Dark Roasted Blend]

It's just a concept, meaning you won't have to make the very difficult decision of whether or not you want to purchase one. [Martin Zampach via The Design Blog via DVice]

Now, this is what microwaves were invented for—forget about reheating your coffee, or drying your underpants out in an emergency, or heating your pajamas. Nope, if you're Washington University research engineer William J. Beaty, it's all about melting beer bottles and making glowy yellow plasma in your kitchen. [MetaCafe via BoingBoing]

Television Microwave Makes More Sense Than Rock Lobsters
By combining two random words, you can either get a semi-successful pop song or an appliance that kind of makes sense. This Holland Electric microwave features a TV on the front, which means you can either entertain yourself or make sure your food's not burning—but not both. More »
