Would it brew tea? That might be a useful little thing. There's an
online coffee pot somewhere in England. Strange no one has yet automated
a water closet or something.

Ahh, I was waiting for someone to bring this up.
As stupid/crazy/cool as it seems, there is a Linux-Coffeemaker-HOWTO.
Tells you how to use an SCR or a relay to hook up your coffee makes to
your parallel port, add a /dev/coffeemaker entry (basically a ln to
/dev/parX) and add a cron daemon entry to make your coffee each morning.
Scary, eh?
