Would it be silly to buy this toaster? There was a short piece in Wired about it, and it just seems... awesome.
The old fart in me wonders why anyone would pay that much for a toaster, but I guess if one needs to have perfect toast and has difficulty getting perfection from a cheaper model, then by all means.
I got my current toaster at Target 6 years ago for less than $20 and it's still toasting just fine.
