Lean Mean Grilling PC Mod

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the doesn't-make-a-fine-panini dept.

An anonymous reader writes that "This bloke has turned a George Foreman Grill into a webserver using what looks like a mini-itx pc. This really does bring a new meaning to the Lean Mean FAT grilling machine!" This is actually a pretty clean looking design. Very well done.

    > And yes, this webserver is hosted on the grill.

    Two points come to mind:

    2: At least he'll get his chance to fry that egg.
