Who needs a weatherman?

[theillegitimate]

A man from Brunel University has devloped a toaster which provides you with the days forecast. Now this does not consist of charts and numbers, but does provide you with a sun, raincloud, snowflake, etc. And burns, or browns rather, the image directly on your slice of toast. This is all done using Java as it's language.

"Using a matrix we can get a display resolution of 11 by 11, which would give us a few isobars, or the temperature - there's enough room for four readable characters," says Robin. The toaster dials a freephone number, which uses a cached weather forecast. Any bread* will do he says.
