Faber Imago - The cookerhood with a computer installed
Looking at the title, does it make you wonder in astonishment that cookerhoods too have a computer installed with a webcam to boot? What is the point in this?
The Faber Imago has a 19-inch widescreen LCD, a linux-driven PC, a built in analog/digital TV tuner and a webcam. With all that functions, you can surf the net and have a teleconferencing while you’re cooking. Pfft…sacrilege. How can you be doing all that WHILE you’re cooking? You’ll be missing the soul factor of it. Modernity has reared it’s ugly head. No doubt it is a cool idea, but it is definitely not a good idea.
I will bet you that it’s price tag will be a handsome sum too. And for what? So you could surf the net while making noodles?

Dude… You say that while at the same time you have a cooking advice section…
Got a prehistoric powerbook in the kitchen to check on recipe during cooking. save on paper, better database, access to cooking website to find equivalent when running out of some of the ingredients… This thing is covered in cooking oil but might be the only computer of real use in the house…
