Anyone with a Pentium 4 processor knows that those babies kick off some serious heat! Now you have a way to harness that wasted energy!
The P4 Easy Bake Oven consists of the following hardware:
**CPU Heatsink attachment
**Thermal pipe (as used in notebook coolers)
**5 1/4 Bay Oven
with fan (for convection cooking/cooling), sealed internally to prevent spills inside the system
**Slide out tray
Stuck in the office, can't escape for lunch? Heat up a Hot Pocket right at your desk!
Service call interrupt your meal? Keep it warm while you work (tech support only)
Staying up late to IM friends on another continent? Heat you up a midnight snack.
Of course, includes the token brownie mix and tray, as well as a lightbulb that doubles as HDD activity light.

Is that the smell of a rant cooking? |
|
|
What could I be ranting about? All processors generate heat. I'm just using it for something. |
|
|
Yeah, I know those things could melt butter, but really? They don't generate the heat needed to warm a cup of coffee, let alone cook some Kentucky Fried Turkey. |
|
|
Most certainly they give off more heat than the 40 watt bulb included in the actual Easy Bake oven.. |
|
|
Well OK, I took off my fishbone... I suppose it's not that bad an idea... For the standalone version, you could probably achieve the same thing with some of the old Pentium < 100 mhz. |

We'll take a dozen on sale-or-return. Low profile croissant ... |

why don't you place a thermastate in your easy bake oven, I used to have on, and then look in bios when your computer starts up, my athlon 900 runs at about 100 or so |
|
|
Half-Life, why not post an idea, 'Thermastate', involving a new national meritocracy of heat-conservators, the greenest (least red) citizens getting the most phoney baloney, etc... |

[Sound idea, thcgenius. have a +1 attack croissant.] |
