Why?

No No No "Why Not!"

No, why ?

The cost for a small electric fryer or small propane grill is ten times less than all that crap - plus you have to wire the thing up and the surface heat is so small. Big Waste of time & space.

so is this a commercial product or are they showing how hot usb stuff gets??

30 usb ports? thats sick i have only like 4 :P so does that mean i cant cook meat with my notebook? :(

why?????????

Obefiend,
if you ever get stuck in a computer store with a lots of meat in the fridge,
your gonna be thankful that you've seen these pic's ;)

they could easily get the voltage directly from power supply, no need for usb

tomorrow's Mike Huckabee is cooking a squirrel with that right now in his college dorm.

Lol, pretty useless but a nice experiment nevertheless.
5 x 6 = 30 ports
30 x 500mA = 15A @ 5V
15A x 5V = 75W

Google for 'fry egg cpu' and you see someone using less wires and only 60W (TDP) ;)

why don't order a hamburguer to your work place, is more cheap than waste electricity, or much better, why not eat at lunchtime? ...thats for lazy fatsos!
