John Lewis' Ultimate kitchen combo includes obligatory LCD TV

by Darren Murph, posted Jun 23rd 2008 at 10:30PM

While those of us here in America puff our chests out each time we waltz by that LCD-equipped centralpark Connection refrigerator, folks in the UK can get extra prideful courtesy of John Lewis. Although the integrated coffee machine, electric oven, steam oven and 19-inch HD-ready LCD TV can all be purchased separately, they're being (smartly) marketed together to create the "ultimate kitchen combo." The whole shebang will run you £2,246 ($4,363), and not surprisingly, it's the £699 ($1,358) tele that's likely to bring in the most profit. Meat-heads will agree to anything with pixels though, right?

Have we gotten so FAT in this country that we need to have a TV inside a kitchen appliance? They've basically eliminated the last bit of exercise that most fat-ass Americans get by offering this.

I' ve got a little LCD in my kitchen too , but I would never want it integrated in anything, you would just pay more for less quality, less possibility to change monitor, impossibility of turning it from the cooker to the table, difficoulty to integrate it with your home network , etc etc.
Basically another useless, piece of pseudo-tech to waste your cash in.
