    I'd think the gram cracker crust would work just fine as long as you didn't "spread" it. Just get it a little hotter and more liquidy and poor it.

    Why the hell would I need a recipe manager? Every recipe I need is always printed right there on the side of the box: "5 minutes on High. Rotate once."

    Somepeople sometimes have trouble with following recipes.
    Occasionally they misread some tiny detail and instead of good bananabread, they have bananabread that looks like elephant poop. It was only 1 thing I misread. Tablespoons instead of teaspoons.

    Yeah, and it's like, how come people have such a hard time fixing their computers? The IT guys tell you exactly what to do! And why is it so hard to put together an entertainment center? It comes with instructions!

    This would make a better web site. Pick a recipe, click, the timer, which could read instructions no problem. It could work.

    This would be 100% awesome if there were a web browser and a WiFi adapter stuffed into that case, instead of a USB port and some proprietary hoopajoop.

    I was just thinking about it, and you'd have to have tooling on the brain not to just buy a used Sony Z505 (or similar) on eBay for like $75.


    (I have one at home, and it runs XP/FF3 surprisingly well. My wife also spilled about half a bottle of beer into it 4 years ago, and it's still going. Seems like a great kitchen "netbook" to me).

    the recipes i follow are pretty simple. i have them committed to memory.


    Step 1: Remove tray from carton.
    Step 2: Cut slit in film.
    Step 3: Microwave on high for 3 minutes.
    **gets tricky here**
    Step 4: Remove film. Stir contents and microwave another 3 minutes. Replace film.
    Step 5: Let stand 1 minute.


    voila. bon eat-it-up.


    ps
    anyone know what it is?

    I know my solutions is decidedly low-tech and non-tree-friendly, but I just find the recipe I want and print it out. Is it really that necessary ($300 worth) to have this taking up counter or table space in the kitchen?

    @Software_Goddess: I have recipes in a database on my PC. I use it to make reprints if someone asks. Recipes in the kitchen, however, work best on laminated cardstock.


    Sometimes, you want two recipes out at the same time, on different sides of the kitchen.

    @dagwud: Office supply stores have clear plastic sleeves designed just for this kind of grimy usage. Buy one or two, slip in your desired recipes (which can be read through both sides of the clear plastic), then wipe clean when finished and file away your pristine printout. Many sizes; I use the wallet sized ones for business cards/credit cards.


    Ask for "Oxford Utili-Jacs" or, more generically, "job jackets". And I'm sure there are other brands.

    Indeed, congratulations, SG! No doubt the result of:

    1) clever and insightful comments

    2) a quickly-growing Following

    3) knowing exactly where on Gizmodo to apply pressure with those stilletos

    I don't know of any self-respecting cook who would be even slightly happy with a proprietary link to a pre-programmed and fixed set of recipes, all the while taking up yet even more precious counter space for limited functionality. Until you can add your own recipes, link to many more reciped source AND modify/interact with the included recipes, this SO much a gigantic


    FAIL!

    Crane-neck iMac on top of the fridge.

    It's actually pretty great, you still get the mouse/keyboard messy but it sweeps down to the perfect head height, depending on your heigh vs the fridge i suppose.

    Waist high? That's what perfect head height would be in my definition.

    As often as not, that "stupid shit" is being bought by know-nothing husbands as a gift for their wives. Yeah, nothings says "I love you--now go fix me dinner" like a kitchen gadget/appliance.
