I think I will stick to coffee pots and microwaves. I don’t want to ware eye protection just to make coffee.
We just use the food replicators ask for ‘instant coffee hot” UGH…
No Peets no workie!!!!!!
Nescafe???? I thought I read “…true geeks make coffee”
This isn’t coffee, and looks like a waste of time and resources. I wonder what it costs to heat water this way. I wonder who owns the abused resources?
Lighten up guys (pun intended).
A geek without caffeine is a wasted resource 😉
I had to give up caffeine and nicotine for health reasons. [sniff]
I can heat all four cups in the same amount of time with a 100 dollar microwave. Dont they have a stronger laser back there somewhere?
Not a bad use of blue ray technology. But, real geeks would not use instant coffee. I’m with wbskeet37 on that one. Also, serious geeks would use caffeinated water!
Wow. True geeks drink some weak ass coffee.
No really, you all missed the most strange thing in the video… one of the geeks actually had tea, instead of coffee… Shouldn’t that disqualify him immediately as a geek!?!?! LOL
After all that, it’s still just a mug of instant coffee.
I don’t believe that to be coffee. It has to be a hoax. Real coffee is made with hot water being poured over coffee grounds, not dissolving it with a laser. Cute, but I call phony on this one.
#7, while I understand nicotine may be harmful to your health, geeze man, I can’t imagine caffeine too !!! You poor SOB. Just tell us you didn’t have to give up sex as well.
this capcha thing sucks. give it some caffeine
Don’t give the Capcha caffeine … it’s already to hyper.
This is kind of like using a chainsaw to cut butter.
Kinda takes the “instant” out of instant coffee if you have to wait that long for a cup.
Oh, c’mon now! Microwave is so…last year’s technology!
8 – Pedro – caffeinedoesn’tdoanythingtomeeithernopenotathing.
This would be a great gimick for anyone who wanted to start a new coffee shop. Zap the water with a laser, and brew the coffee with it.
Actually Microwaves and lasers are rather old technology, for at least 50+ years in some form of application or another. But there aren’t any home appliances that use lasers.. at least anymore more than a pointing device.
I want a laser powered coffee maker!
