It's a toaster bay for your PC

Yes, that is a slice of toast.

We love toast. And by we, I mean you. Everybody loves toast. Even if you say you don't love toast...you still do. It's a fact, an irrefutable fact. What's that you say? Don't put words in your mouth? Or toast either? You really don't love toast that much? It's just all right you say? Well, I have proof that you love toast.

Here we have the PC Toaster Bay from CrazyPC. (What's so crazy about it?) It fits into a standard 5.25-inch drive bay and makes, well, toast--toast from the comfort of your computer. To hook it up you need an available USB port and a four-pin Molex power connector. Your familiar toaster controls for light to dark and time are available via a Windows-based software interface. The generated heat is ventilated through the back of the case.

High-tech toast.

So, there is the undeniable truth: people love toast so much that toasters are now everywhere--even in your computer. To further that chain of logic: You're reading this on a computer, right? And this is about a computer drive bay being used to make toast, right? Therefore you love toast. Case closed.

Oh, everybody loves toast except Mac users; the software isn't available for them (yet).

the toaster's heat passing through the computer doesn't seem like a good idea
