I've never heard of the "Famous Sushi Chef" Nobu (welll, at least, not before reading the linked article) but I think these PCs are a great idea.

For somee years now, I've been craving a suitable PC for the kitchen, something that I can network into the home network, and use to look up recipes and browse the web while doing the boring parts of cooking. Of course, it has to be easy-to clean, and reasonably heat/steam resistant, but that shouldn't be too hard, right?

Anyhow, I think one of these little Nobu PCs would be a great option for that sort of thing...
