The PC is an Oven and the Oven a PC
Mark Rolston, frog's Chief Creative Officer, is featured in a story by the German news magazine STERN.
If you speak or want to learn some German, here's the full article.
If you don't speak German, you may at least enjoy the video below, in which Mark demoes the new HP TouchSmart PC (frog did the software UI) and the fully frog-designed TurboChef high-speed oven -- as perfect examples of how the convergence of software and hardware is driving innovation in the world of consumer products.

Thanks for the tip, Tim. I will definitely give it a shot, even though I'm just learning German.
ovens in India
deepti - August 11, 2008
loved it ....
I have been also doing resrch in the area of oven for a Consumer durable firm here for future design directions .
In the area of insights i was surprised the kind of convergence Indian woman was ready for.
touch screen is great but they are now looking at convergence of communication . Can we communicate to our oven sitting in office.
By the time we reach home all is done .. or at least our tea and sancks which we aill keep inside in the morning as we leave .
why cant the ovens be carryable .. so we can carry them on put doors , keep them next to us as wewatch tv and keep popping popcorns there ....
And why cant the oven teach us to cook ...
And to top it all , cant we cook more than two dishes at the same time .. why the waste of time ...
