Remember when this microwave with a computer was launched? They said it would be handy for looking up recipes! The thing is -who needs a recipe to use a microwave? And the computers we already were using were fully capable of looking up recipes. This is just one example from a list at Gizmodo of gadgets that crashed and burned because they were redundant, poorly designed, or just plain silly. Link -via the Presurfer

Presumably the person's kitchen contains more than this microwave... The microwave is just where the screen is located -- you can still cook in other areas of the kitchen. Apologies for humorlessly wrecking the joke.
