"Taking a page out of Lexmark playbook, the Keurig company, famous for it's one-cup coffee making system, now comes with new and improved 100% DRM. Apparently, Keurig is upset over re-usable third-party 'coffee pods' which allow the consumer to escape the Keurig throw-away models which carry a retail price 5% to 25% more. Keurig's CEO, Brian Kelly referred to the move as 'game-changing performance.' Perhaps this will finally be the year of Linux on the Coffe Maker?"

SSH into the coffee machine would be fantastic. Even better would be a full cron daemon. The timers that exist on some machines are pretty nifty, but nothing compared to the full versatility of cron.
I worry about the trend in this direction. God forbid my coffeepot gets malware that results in it only making decaf...
