First Look: Microsoft Surface Stove

Posted By: Larry Larsen | Apr 1st @ 1:40 AM | 46,836 Views | 9 Comments
Here is a first look at a new product out of MSR that uses a Microsoft Surface computer integrated as a drop in replacement for a stove top. The diffused glass normally used for a Surface is replaced with a tempered glass which is then heated with an array of lasers that heat the stove top while giving you all the same features found in other Surface computers. It can heat up to 520 degrees and uses only 30% of the energy of a comparable stove top, recouping the added cost over the course of several years, depending on how often you use your stove.

I would totally buy this if it didn't heat up all of the glass. I imagine that prevents you from cooking more than one thing at once.

You have to be kidding me.  This has to be an April Fools joke.

Lasers huh... ? Nice aprils fool joke. Especially with the cold-ice simulating the hot air Wink

On the other hand such device would be possible. (!) At least if you consider embeding the MS Surface into the induction-hot-plate not ceramic one. As Induction heats only the bottom of the pot the "problem" of the hot surface would be solve, althrough it raises another problems (magnetic fields generated by the induction-plate etc.)

It would be possible... if this news would have been posted on any other date I would have believed it.
