Great for Popcorn but Forget Playing Movies

Overclocked Mcirowav

 

A eSATA port might come in handy. Expandable butter slot might aid in syncing popcorn settings. The video display card on this is standard so for you hard core video additcts, you might want to upgrade it to RADEON 9000SVL to make it a dual back lit...

Small but works well.

 

Compact but does the job. Use it to cook veges, fish and reheat food. Light only comes on when it's running; not when you open the door. Needed a small size for a small counter space. Replaced a Sharp we had for 15 years. Hope this one lasts as long.
