Please someone make a toaster with Linux... I'm starting to get desperate!!]]>Sep 16th 2008 12:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/15/toaster-computer-is-fine-for-email-useless-for-pop-tarts/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/15/toaster-computer-is-fine-for-email-useless-for-pop-tarts/
DDOS is where it's at!]]>Sep 15th 2008 5:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/15/toaster-computer-is-fine-for-email-useless-for-pop-tarts/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/15/toaster-computer-is-fine-for-email-useless-for-pop-tarts/
1) There are slots in the top... Where is the DVD drive popping up out of one of them?
2) There is a TON of room inside... Why is the PSU outside?
3) Why did they bolt the HD tray to the side... With bolts sticking out?
4) They just covered the toast slots... Why not do SOMETHING (anything) with them? Aside from a DVD drive... You could have put in lights... Maybe even vent fans... A small LCD screen that displays free memory or something that you raise and lower using the toaster levers.... A projector clock that projects the time on the celing... SOMETHING!!!

This is a fail toaster computer. The point of putting a computer in something other than a computer case is that it still LOOKS like the original item!

The NES toaster is WAY COOLER than this could ever HOPE to be!

At least the NES toaster USES the toast slots!]]>Sep 15th 2008 5:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/15/toaster-computer-is-fine-for-email-useless-for-pop-tarts/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/15/toaster-computer-is-fine-for-email-useless-for-pop-tarts/Sep 15th 2008 5:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/15/toaster-computer-is-fine-for-email-useless-for-pop-tarts/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/15/toaster-computer-is-fine-for-email-useless-for-pop-tarts/

As per having a cheap/old monitor... I have had this thing since 1995. It was my only monitor laying around. Honestly, I am not going to go out and buy a new LCD monitor for ~$150 (don't quibble over the prices that you may see elsewhere) in order to display the results. The point was to show that it does indeed function (and this will play a much bigger role when part 2 is complete). Part 2 will also encompass the lovely extras, such as a slim CD-ROM drive popping through one of the toast slots, the levers will power it on/off and restart it, etc.

I hope that this answers a few questions/clarifies any misunderstandings. I will post updates when part 2 is finished.
