Beanzawave - Coming Soon to Your....Laptop?

Heinz has developed this prototype microwave which is powered by your laptop via a USB cable. Great idea for those who find it difficult to get away from their desks.

It would be great in my workplace. We work 12-hour shifts, and apart from two 45-minute breaks, don't get away from our work areas. Most of us pack lunchbags with snacks and cold drinks, but sometimes we need hot drinks. Our control rooms can get cold some days and a hot coffee or tea would be a welcome addition.

At the very least, it's a cool, new gadget, that if the price comes down, could be a welcome addition to most work stations.
